Industries · Texas and Louisiana

Built for supply houses. And the field.

Distributors are Superior’s core customer: electrical, plumbing and PVF, and HVAC supply houses that have to keep branches stocked and jobsites moving. Oilfield, chemical and industrial shippers call us for the load that can’t wait. Each trade gets the truck, the schedule and the paperwork it needs.

Why supply houses call us

Your counter, your customer.

A distributor sells two things: the stock and the promise that it shows up. When a branch runs short or a contractor is waiting at the jobsite, the truck is part of the sale.

Superior has run that truck since 1978. We know the difference between a will-call, a branch transfer and a jobsite drop, and we dispatch each one differently.

Field operators, from the oilfield to the plant gate, use us for the same reason: one call, a truck sized to the load, and proof when it lands.

  • Trucks sized to the load: pickup, cargo van, one-ton, stakebed, large stakebed, box truck with lift gate or mini float.
  • Overnight routes that load at your DC in the evening and stock every branch before it opens.
  • Hot shots and same-day runs for the order that can’t wait for tomorrow’s route.
  • Dedicated trucks that replace your own, supplied, driven, insured and maintained by Superior.
  • Hazmat certified, with placarded trucks and hazmat-endorsed drivers.
  • A live GPS link, a text at every milestone and signed, photographed proof of delivery.

Same company, different work

One fleet. Five rhythms.

The trades share trucks, but not schedules. Here is what each one tends to lean on.

Dispatch confirms the size and weight of every load on the call, so the truck that shows up is the one that fits.
