Policies, routes, delivery dates—we run a business that’s efficient, and we don’t create any kind of run around for our clients or drivers.
KEEP FAMILY FIRST
We know what’s most important. So we work hard to ensure every driver is home every week, and we support married driving teams.
CARE FOR OUR OWN
We’re talking about our clients, our employees and our trucks. Keeping the fleet up to date, practicing financial discretion and recognizing hard work.
EARN LOYALTY
From our clients with well-protected and timely cargo. From our employees with fair pay, mileage and vacations.
ABOUT SOUTHPORT
A BUCKET-OF-SHRIMP IDEA
Southport Trucking was inspired on the back deck of the best raw bar in Fort Lauderdale. That was in 2004. By 2008, the dream was made official with the company’s first truck.
Founded at the onset of the financial recession and battling a surplus of truckers and record high fuel prices, Southport relied on a lean fleet and a superior trucking experience in order to establish itself.
Word traveled of the West Michigan company with reliable trucks, loyal crews and steady growth, setting Southport Trucking apart as a community of drivers with a strong sense of ourselves, building a presence around the nation.
IF YOU MAKE IT, WE TRANSPORT IT some of our loads include:

PREMIUM TERRITORY
