PST Van Lines - Former drivers out there?

wow- I Remember PST- They had a small yard over here in Hammond,In off of Summer Street and Kennedy If I Recall............

 

Bummed out that they went out of business, only because PST are my initials. So I always used to tell girls that my that I owned the trucking company or that my family named it after me.

However after reading some of the posts here apparently it wasn’t a trucking company to brag about.

 

PST. They've always been my favorite trucking company name. I've always wondered if the owners/founders had a sense of humor when they founded the company with that name.

 

What did PST stand for?

 

Pacific States Transport

 

I drove for them Thought it was fare company My trainer was Charles B. he was also a part time Cook Co Sheriff one of THE BEST Trainers I have ever been with

 

Resurrecting an old thread, PST is what peaked my interest in trucking as a child, about the time I was 7. I grew up in FL, and my grandparents lived in a little town named Hernando in north citrus county, we’d go out there quite often and I always looked forward to seeing the PST FLD120, big standup condo, that parked right off of hwy 41 on his home time, never met the guy, but he had to have been with them for years because I can think back to my childhood and always remember seeing that truck. I’ve been driving since I was 19, but I never got to see the good old days of trucking like some of you have, been out here 21 years now and the industry just isn’t the same. Either way, thanks for the memories of the good old days, that pic of that new small bunk FLD further up the thread is cool, amazing you guys could spend weeks away in those trucks and not gripe about it, todays new breed wouldn’t leave the yard in that thing.
