We ship a variety of food-grade products: creamers, milk, packaging. Sometimes we need tanker-endorsed drivers. Sometimes we need a reefer truck. We like working with Badger because we know we can get the right trailer and a qualified, trustworthy driver no matter what.

What our customers say about us…

— Paul Oberg, Watertronics

Finding a logistics company that understands specialized shipping used to be a real headache for us. Since we've been with Badger, that's one less thing I have to worry about. The work they do behind the scenes, communicating with sites to ensure smooth delivery experiences, really is invaluable and unmatched. Their pool of vetted drivers allows us to keep our promises and grow our business. When they say they'll have a truck there at 7 AM, you can count on it being there at 7 AM—and in this industry, that reliability is worth its weight in gold.

— Cristian Ewing, Innerpak of Wisconsin

If they can’t move it with their own team they will find a trustworthy carrier that holds their same ideals, to seem like an extension of their own fleet. Sometimes we get orders from a customer that have to be picked up shortly after the order is placed or go far beyond our state borders. Badger is great because they can provide a trustworthy driver with a short lead time for a fair price. Plus they have some options my regular suppliers don’t provide.
