Salmon Companies started in 1946 as a U.S. Mail carrier operating one straight truck on a route from Harrison, Arkansas to Little Rock, Arkansas. Every night, Pat Salmon himself would drive the truck, getting the mail to Little Rock on time. Since then the company has not lost its focus, direction or forgotten its origin.

Transporting the mail has become more sophisticated with regard to the equipment used, but the principle remains the same, “safely on time, every time”.

Today the company transports mail in almost every state in the contiguous United States and has full-service maintenance facilities in several major cities throughout the country, creating many new jobs in the trucking industry in the process. We are the largest ground transportation supplier to the United State Postal Service. We continually work to partner with the USPS to safely and efficiently transport the nation’s mail, while controlling cost and providing best value to our customer.
