Non-Hazardous Chemicals - We provide regional truckload services for both industrial and household detergents and cleaning products. While not flammable, most detergent and cleaning products benefit from a non-refrigerated but cooler climate, and our fleet of well maintained dry vans is most suited to handle these sensitive products. Nussbaum invests in its equipment regularly, so you can be sure our fleet meets the toughest quality and safety standards for hauling your products.


New and Recycled Paper Products - Paper transportation often requires specialized equipment to meet product sensitivities. Nussbaum contracts with several paper and packaging companies for regional truckload delivery, and works with each to ensure product integrity and on-time arrival for every paper shipment we haul. Our fleet is equipped with standard dry vans that are ideal for moving recycled paper products like corrugated boxes.

Steel and Raw Finished Products - From the transportation of steel components used in the construction of commercial buildings, to raw steel bars used to forge agricultural machinery parts, our drivers take extra care to properly secure every load to ensure proper handling and safe steel transport. Our regional truckload services and dedicated contract carriage utilizes both vans and flatbed trailers to properly deliver raw and manufactured steel products.
