McKevitt Ceases Operation

Wow. Anyone know what their main freight base was?

 

They retired. It was a planned closure apparently, I assume couldn't find a buyer.

 

That’s a tough sell if your main base is one industry.

 

sucks to hear of a company who’s been around along time close up shop . Titanium is pulling out of North Bay and there will be job losses because of a difficult economy in the North Bay area . Lots of trucking companies across the border have shut down this year . It’s sad to see it happening on this side of the boarder now . Trucking used to be a job where you didn’t have to worry because everything came on a truck . No so much anymore and it’s only going to get worse with Ai and other technology

 

Heard this as well on one of the other forums I am on.

Someone was saying there really wasn’t much worth buying. Equipment was old, terminal wasn’t all that great, neither was the book of business.

 

I remember their trailers always looking kind of old , I use to see them all the time when we/they had zellers
