Company Profile

We are a small family owned and operated common and contract carrier.  The common carrier portion is primarily a flat bed operation.  Dedicated services include flat beds, side kit operations, and lumber by-product hauling.  Our company started in the dining room replacing the table with a desk and telephone, four trucks and a few flatbeds. 
 
Today we are located at the Lamar County Industrial Park on a five acre fenced tract with our own 7500 sq. ft. building with three maintenance bays, a wash rack, a parts rooms and our offices.  With the technology available, we run the operation with only three support people for the primary personnel  who man the tractors and make our business possible. 
 
Because we have been able to keep our overhead costs to a minimum, we have  "satisfied customers"  and we make on time deliveries at a reasonable cost.

   C.H. Chasteen

Before there were requirements like a CDL, I began driving a tractor-trailer for a farm and construction organization at fourteen.  At sixteen, I was making out of state hauls, and have continued in the trucking end of business since.  Twenty seven years as an over the road trucker for Stokely Van Camp  and then as their Dispatcher, and finally their Distribution Manager.  In that position, was responsible for the daily operation and maintenance of the fleet as well as the Warehousing and Shipping. They sold the operation and I was the last person to leave their organization in Griffin, GA in 1984.   Since 1986  when I founded Chasteen's Trucking, I have been actively involved,  with its operation and its support.  Daily operations are now competently handled by my son, Cary Chasteen.  You can depend on him to provide continually improving operations.
