Trucking in Utah

Utah's trucking industry is anchored by C.R. England, one of the largest refrigerated carriers in the country, headquartered in Salt Lake City. The I-15 and I-80 corridors make Utah a critical link between the Pacific Coast and the Mountain West/Midwest. Salt Lake City has become a major distribution hub, with Amazon, eBay, and other e-commerce companies establishing large fulfillment centers. The booming tech sector along the 'Silicon Slopes' corridor (Lehi to Provo) adds growing freight demand. Mining operations, particularly Rio Tinto's Kennecott copper mine, generate heavy haul requirements.
