Liberty Road Logistics LLC
Decades in the making
“There is nothing that could possibly happen that we haven’t seen, done or lived through. You deserve more than a voice on the phone. Enlist a partner to walk with you through your auto transport move”. – Thad Kaylor
Liberty Road Logistics LLC is not a new idea or creation from 10 minutes ago. It is a culmination of experience spanning 30 years, beginning in 1991 when Thad Kaylor took a Sales position with Charlie Sattler Oldsmobile Cadillac, in Springfield, IL.
Thad Kaylor founded Mid America Transport LLC in December of 2006 as a national flatbed commercial carrier. Given Thad’s background in the auto business, flatbeds were soon replaced with auto transport equipment. Mid America Transport LLC (DOT Number 1447663) has been serving retail clients, dealers, auto fleets and equipment providers ever since.

Reliable
We take pride in following through on our promises. It is our philosophy that when our clients trust us to deliver on something, they deserve our unwavering dedication and attention to detail. Above all, we understand that clear and consistent communication is the bedrock of any successful business operation. We believe that accurate and timely information is a requirement in the successful completion of any project.
We strive for perfect balance
Client value
Without happy clients, NO ONE ELSE IS NEEDED. It is our job to clarify and understand our client’s need, define the solution and aggregate the inputs required to do the job. We also believe this has to be done efficiently, and at a price that yields a high value to the client. We do this in order to build the foundation for a long term, mutually beneficial business flow.
carrier cost
Without happy carriers NOTHING GETS DONE. We can testify, reputable carriers migrate to reputable brokers first. Reputable brokers do their jobs securing business and pay fair rates in responsible manner to those actually paying the bills and doing the work required. Maintaining a transport company is an expensive proposition relative to regulations, fuel, insurance, equipment cost, maintenance; and we haven’t yet discussed labor or living on the road for weeks at a time being treated like a nuisance.
final solution
Building client value and discovering an appropriate price point to attract a reputable carrier, while respecting both, is the key.

Yes. If we are not available, we closely monitor email and will get back to you as time permits. sending your data and questions through any part of our website helps us possess and efficiently refer to accurate data along the way.
Maybe. Yes if the driver agrees to the addresses. Often however, many of these transporters cannot legally travel on local weight restricted or smaller neighborhood roads where there may be low hanging trees. Drivers will get as close as they can and may ask you to meet them within a few miles of your address in a commercial area, about anywhere big trucks delivery to.
Short answer- depends on distance and number of stops. Might take 2 to 5 days to get you moving. It will be 1 to 3 days on short moves, and could be 6 to 10 on the longest moves.
That is the VERY FIRST THING you should do. We will walk beside you from the first phone call until your car has been delivered and you are happy… unless you are buying dinner, and we will walk a little farther with you.
