About Us

Our strategy

Gold Rush Express is a Full Service Transportation brokerage in Grand Prairie, Texas. Family owned and operated we have been labeled in the industry as a fun loving, hard working group of individuals that TAKE CARE OF BUSINESS! The secret to our lasting success has been our dedication to our customers, our carriers and the standing promise to excel in all that we do.

Servicing all 48 states in LTL and Truckload has given us the opportunity to work with a number of customers and carriers all over the United States. We haul a variety of commodities, such as; consumer goods, machinery, building supplies, food products, and etc. We have found that our communications skills are one of the many things that set us aside from our competitors. Our customers trust that we will take care of them and their freight, from the moment they call in to schedule a pick up to when their freight has safely delivered to their customer. With that said, our carriers know that they can always count on Gold Rush to pay fair rates and quickly which keeps the good carriers wanting to haul our freight.

We are different from many other brokers, in that we have a 10,000 square foot warehouse facility and local truck, which allows us to consolidate and ship loads directly from our facility. Our warehouse gives us the capability to take care of our customer’s LTL personally. Once our customer’s freight is loaded, either at their location or ours, their freight is not handled again until it arrives at their customer, cutting down on transit time and damages/losses.

It all comes down to what is most important to you and to your customers. If you are looking for a dependable, honest carrier that will take care of you and your freight with a personal touch, Gold Rush Express is who you are looking for. We are very proud of our reputation for service and dependability and we feel that you will be too.
