Our History

History & About Us

Forged From Steel

National Flatbed Solutions LLC (NFS) originated from a family-owned Steel Pipe producer. National Flatbed was officially established in 2018 as a response to high volume of truckloads and the need for a customer service-oriented supply-chain management company. That along with our 15+ years of logistical experience created the perfect environment for an independent third-party logistics company.

Quote From The VP of Operations

“I’ve been on the other side of the transaction, working as a structural steel salesman. When in that position I knew what mattered to me was being provided up-to-date information. Whether it be about delivery or a delay. That allowed me to service my customer. We strive to make sure that we are the carrier always providing information before the request.”
