“ Company has been the best I have worked for in a long time one that takes the time to appreciate...”
BUILT BY FLATBED DRIVERS, DRIVEN BY FLATBED DRIVERS
Experience the Difference
COTC was founded by a couple of flatbed drivers in 1992, running exclusively local and regional flatbed freight in the Pacific Northwest. We have been tarping, strapping, and throwing chains every day since. If it goes on a flatbed then we haul it across all 48 states and Canada on our lightweight aluminum Reitnouer trailers pulled by our fleet of Kenworth tractors.
Today, we are an over-the-road, irregular route flatbed trucking company offering industry leading driver pay and benefits while maintaining exceptional CSA scores. This means more freight, more reliability and more green lights as far as the road is long.
Our drivers have nominated us a Best Fleets to Drive For®, twelve years running, for providing the best workplace experience. We won competition for 2018 Best Fleets to Drive For Best Overall Fleet for Small Carrier and have been named to the Top 20 in the 2014 – 2025 competitions. COTC was designated a 2018 100 Best Companies to Work For in Oregon and 2015 Top Workplaces.

A Message from the President of Central Oregon Truck

I’m proud to serve as the President of Central Oregon Truck, a role I’ve held since 2020. Taking the reins of the company my father founded has been both an honor and a responsibility I don’t take lightly. In his time driving flatbed trucks he learned firsthand what it takes to succeed on the road and most importantly, how to create an opportunity for others to be successful at COTC. The experiences as a son of an OTR flatbed driver and with the lessons passed down from my father, have shaped not just who I am, but how I lead this company.
Since stepping into this role, I’ve worked hard to incorporate those hard-earned insights into the best practices, policies, and programs that guide Central Oregon Truck today. My goal has always been to support our drivers, invest in innovation, and uphold the high standards that built this company from the ground up.
I’m excited for what lies ahead and deeply committed to keeping Central Oregon Truck a company that values its people and though excellence, propels us the carrier of choice for industry and its drivers.
