Rinaudo Enterprises, Inc., a PS Logistics Company, has been in the trucking business since 1984 and in heavy equipment transport since 1996.   

Our six-acre terminal is based in Jacksonville, FL, and consists of a six-bay truck/trailer shop and a separate paint and body shop where we maintain our fleet of 60 heavy haul trucks and 73 specialized trailers. Twenty-four of our trucks have 4-axles, which gives us the capability to transport a lot of heavy equipment all at one time. Also, available is our loading dock and equipment storage here at our terminal.

Although we are registered in 48 states, our main transport coverage ranges to twenty-two states from Florida to Louisiana up to Minnesota, and over to Pennsylvania. We have a large amount of our equipment always in the southeast area and can give same-day or next-morning pickup service with short notice. Our trucks carry annual oversize/overweight permits for the states of Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee, North Carolina, Kentucky, and Iowa. This gives us the capability to load and start traveling without having to wait for most permits to be issued.

Our long-term relationships with customers and vendors have made us what we are today—a leading-edge full-service transportation provider. By blending the traditional values of quality service with the latest in transportation technology, Rinaudo has become the service carrier of choice.
