ABOUT US

Providing safe, dependable, and reliable local and long-haul trucking and logistics services is important to our drivers and staff.

Stokes Trucking is driven by our core values - Do the Right Thing, Optimism, Accountable Leadership, Safety, Strive for Perfection, and Sustainability. It is essential that every member of the Stokes Trucking team understands and embraces these core values.

Do the Right Thing - Every decision we make is guided by the question: "Is it the right thing to do?" We uphold honesty, fairness, and authenticity in all our actions. We believe that success and profitability will naturally follow by consistently doing the right thing. Since Val founded Stokes Trucking in 1979, every decision has been made with this principle in mind. Even when it may seem detrimental to the business in the short term, we trust that "paying it forward" will benefit us in the long run.
Optimism - We strive to remain positive, pleasant, and friendly while embracing a spirit of fun. Trucking can be challenging, with weather, mechanical breakdowns, and traffic testing even the best outlooks. By maintaining a positive attitude, we can better handle unplanned adversities. Life is short; let's enjoy the journey while it lasts.
Accountable Leadership - We are hardworking, detail-oriented, punctual, and maintain a can-do attitude. We encourage all our employees to be leaders in their respective areas and to inspire others. Though we are independent, responsible leaders, we are accountable to one another and every member of the Stokes Trucking team.
Safety - We value safety and are committed to ensuring everyone, including our employees and the general public, returns home safely to their loved ones.
Strive for Perfection - Vince Lombardi famously said, “Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection, we can catch excellence.” We are passionate and committed to excellence, making it our standard in everything we do.
Sustainability - Mother Earth has limited resources, and we believe it is our responsibility to utilize them wisely. We are committed to delivering our customers' goods in the most efficient and environmentally friendly manner possible.
