Gateway Distribution runs on dedicated freight, our own drivers, and trucks we actually control. It all starts here in Cincinnati. This is our headquarters and our main hub, sitting at the crossroads of I-71, I-75, and I-275, where a huge share of the country's freight moves through every single day.
From here we run time-sensitive loads across the Midwest and out to our regional hubs in Newburgh, New York and Wytheville, Virginia. No brokers shuffling your shipment off to whoever happens to have room. No subcontractors who go quiet the moment your deadline gets close. When you ship with Gateway, the company that books your load is the same one that drives it.
Cincinnati businesses do not need another trucking company that overpromises and routes freight around its own schedule. They need capacity that lives in the region and moves when it is supposed to. That is what we built here at home base, and it is why so many local shippers stopped calling brokers and started calling us.
My freight shipment is too big for regular trucks
When your industrial equipment or steel beams won't fit in a standard trailer, you need flatbed transport that can handle the dimensions and weight. Most Cincinnati manufacturers shipping oversized machinery through I-71 or I-75 corridors run into this exact problem with regular freight companies. Get your exact measurements and weight ready, then call Gateway Distribution to arrange flatbed shipping that can accommodate cargo too large for enclosed trailers.
Our Cincinnati headquarters has the capacity you need
Gateway Distribution is headquartered in Cincinnati, with regional hubs in Newburgh, New York and Wytheville, Virginia.
This is where Gateway started and where we still run the whole operation. Dispatch, warehousing, and a fleet of our own trucks, all based at our Cincinnati headquarters. When your load needs to move, you are not waiting on a broker three states away to find a truck. The capacity is already here, staged and ready.
Being headquartered in the city we serve changes how your freight gets handled. Local dispatchers who actually pick up the phone. Drivers who know the regional routes and the docks before they get there. And a direct line into our Newburgh and Wytheville hubs when your shipment needs to keep moving east.

Why You Can Trust Us
What Our Customers Say
Trusted Partners
Most freight moving through Cincinnati hits the I-71 and I-75 corridors that cross right through the basin. If you're shipping from Over-the-Rhine warehouses or need loads delivered to facilities near the University of Cincinnati, you know how tight those scheduling windows get. LTL shipments that miss connections cost you days. Full truckloads that show up late shut down your receiving dock. The difference is working with a carrier that knows these routes and has staging space when traffic backs up on the interstates.
We run our Cincinnati hub operations through Gateway Logistics, and our trucks stage loads near Eden Park when I-75 gets jammed up. Most of our manufacturer partnerships come through the Ohio Trucking Association, where we've held membership for years. Your shipment isn't getting lost in a dispatch system three states away.
