Okay, just going by what was on their web site. I'm not sure if they moved the N. Bergen terminal over to the former Carolina/FXF in Newark, on Delancey St. it's listed as Newark and they are looking for help in that terminal to increase the work force from 60-?, but I run Richmond and I'm out of the loop. Thanks for the heads up.

They built a brand new Break bulk in North Arlington NJ on Route 7 next to the landfill. The land was approved for a break bulk by Roadway 25 years ago that they walked away from.

The experience to take you where you need to go — however you need to get there.
In this business, experience counts for a lot. When you select an experienced carrier, you get more than a partner who has "been there - done that". You get commitment. At Saia, our relationship with our customers isn't quarter-to-quarter, we're in it for the long haul.
Saia began in 1924 when Louis Saia, Sr., a produce dealer in Houma, LA, decided there was more to be made in delivering produce than selling it. Our first "truck" was the family car with the rear seats removed.

Over the next 45 years, Saia continued to expand, establishing terminals throughout Louisiana and Texas. By 1986, Saia was one of the largest regional LTL carriers in the country, with 23 terminals across five Southeastern states, approximately 1000 employees and over $50 million in revenue.

In 1987, the Saia family sold the company to Preston Trucking. When Yellow Corporation purchased Preston in 1993, it also acquired Saia. Two years later, Saia merged with Smalley Transportation, another Yellow division, and opened terminals in North and South Carolina and western Texas. As a result, Saia customers had access to 100% of all eleven Southern states we now covered.

In 2001, Yellow integrated its Action Express and WestEx divisions, under the Saia brand, increasing our direct coverage to 21 states and more than 100 terminals. In 2002, Saia and Jevic Transportation, another Yellow Corp. company, spun off to form an independent, publicly traded company, SCST.

In 2004, Clark Brothers Transport,Inc. and its nine-state, 16-terminal network joined Saia's network, providing our customers service to key Midwestern markets including Chicago, St. Louis, Kansas City and Minneapolis. Two years later, SCST sold Jevic Transportation, folded all corporate functions into Saia and began trading on the NASDAQ with the ticker symbol "SAIA."

In 2007, Saia announced the acquisitions of The Connection Company, of Columbus, OH, and Madison Freight Systems, Inc. based in Waunakee, WI. That same year, we also had over a billion dollars in gross revenue for the first time in our history.

In 2012, Saia expanded our capabilities beyond LTL with the purchase of The Robart Companies, a Georgia-based firm that provides non-asset based truckload service and third-party logistics.

Today, Saia's network of 156 terminals and approximately 9,500 employees covers 40 states in the U.S. as well as Canada. Through our network of partners, we serve the balance of the U.S. including Alaska and Hawaii, plus Puerto Rico and Mexico. Through our operating service groups - Saia LTL, Saia Logistics Services , and LinkEx - we provide complete transportation and logistics solutions.

I've worked for companies owning Saia twice! Preston, and Yellow. Both went into Debt to pay for the acquisition, and then struggled with payments, and maintainence on our own equipment suffered.

Wow I didn’t know that. I was on the Carlstadt from the last change in mid November until April. This mini hub in Richmond has its own unique set of issues to iron out.

State ordered it closed back in December - owner supposedly had mob ties. I can't believe it, mob ties here in New Jersey? As Captain Renault said to Rick: "I'm shocked!" :smile new:

I think it may have reopened in March with "new" owners but I'm not exactly sure about that.

Good luck on the Richmond run. Anytime you don't have to head into or through this area has to be a good day.

"New Jersey has whacked The Bing.

Satin Dolls, the Lodi strip club that proudly served as the fictional "Bada Bing" in the landmark mob drama "The Sopranos," is one of two North Jersey go-go bars ordered to cease operations, Attorney General Christopher S. Porrino announced Thursday.
The Route 17 club and A.J.'s Gentleman's Club in Secaucus have until Dec. 17 to cease live entertainment due to alleged violations of state laws, Porrino said in a statement.

Their liquor licenses must be sold or transferred to a third party no later than Jan 3, 2018, according to Porrino and the N.J. Division of Alcohol Beverage Control.

The clubs and owners -- identified as members of the Cardinalle family -- have been under state investigation for more than six years, Porrino said."
