TCI Transportation

In April of 1985, TCI began a dedicated operation in the Bay Area and to date has over thirty-five dedicated operations. TCI's client base includes retail, manufacturing, food service, general commodities, logistics warehouse and distribution companies. In these dedicated operations, TCI forms a partnership to provide new levels of customer service and value added synergies while minimizing direct transportation costs.

In dedicated operations, TCI provides specialized equipment, drivers, management and the latest cost-effective technology on the market today. To date, TCI operates full service facilities in the cities of Commerce (L.A.), Bakersfield, Fontana, Stockton, Freemont, Las Vegas and Phoenix. TCI’s vehicle fleet has increased to over 2,000 trucks, tractors and trailers and now employs over 600 personnel.

TCI’s other business lines include a truckload over the road division, truck and trailers sales, maintenance programs and services to over 1,500 vehicles that are owned and operated by other companies.

At TCI, we focus on making a difference in the lives of our customers and staff. We are committed to creating a work environment that is friendly and supportive while providing employees with opportunities for success and future advancement. That same level of commitment is extended towards our community and the environment.

Empower & Improve
Having been involved in the trucking industry for 40 years, TCI understands the importance of focus, innovation, and commitment. Our comprehensive services are only  possible through the integration of dedicated operations, collaborative partnerships and a diverse team of exceptionally trained and knowledgeable professionals. That’s why we empower each member of our team to continuously expand  their level of expertise and encourage them to be proactive, tenacious, and lead by example.

Safety Comes First
People drive our business, and we are dedicated to keeping them safe in every way possible. We are proud to be OSHA complaint (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) and pay strict attention to every detail within every aspect of our facilities. Being committed to providing a safe working environment for our drivers and employees means training, appropriate work surroundings, and procedures that focus on protection, health, and safety. Because everyone deserves to work in a safe environment, and we are dedicated to ensuring TCI’s meets the toughest standards of all – our own.

Industry Leadership
TCI is actively engaged in best practices for our dedicated transportation business, leasing business, and global logistics business. We collaborate extensively with industry partners to help us ensure the best ideas in the industry are adopted and implemented. We are also involved in state and national industry organizations where we network and participate in the overall success of the trucking, leasing, intermodal, and logistics industries.

Diversity & Inclusion
Being committed to our core values means being true to the company and one another. TCI’s values are the crux of our continued growth and long-time employee loyalty. While that steadfastness won’t always resonate with everyone, we believe those core values enable us to attract and retain the best people, regardless of their backgrounds, heritage, or preferences.

Corporate Responsibility
Doing things the right way sometimes means that you give up a short-term win for long-term success. With our sights set on the next generation and financial performance measured over decades, we have the patience and discipline to do the right thing for our team and customers. Our integrity is a core TCI value and is prevalent throughout our business–it’s our promise to every customer.

Transportation Expertise
With over 40 years of experience in the transportation business, our customers have come to count on our advancing knowledge and never-ending commitment to continuous improvement. We believe in the tried and true industry fundamentals of great preventative maintenance, logical equipment spec’ing, and empowering people to be great in their role.

TCI also recognizes that you have to get outside your comfort zone and try new things to stay relevant and remain in a leadership position. Combining proven methodologies and new approaches helps us meet and establish new best practices while keeping our brand sharp and relevant, and best able to serve you.

Community Involvement
We’re amazed at the involvement our team members and customers are actively pursuing within our community. We lead by supporting our customers with their benevolence programs as well as focusing on our own team members’ families and futures. Our Gerry Flynn scholarship program helps our employee’s college-age children afford the most important investment they can make while other programs aid on-the-job training and upward advancement for every team member.

The Principles We Live By

TCI credits their continued growth and client satisfaction largely to the five core values of which the business was founded. Essentially, these values are the crux of what holds each TCI entity to high standards and are ingrained principles that have been practiced daily by each and every team member.

Whatever your administrative expertise, an office career in the trucking industry is both challenging as well as fulfilling. And as ammeter of the TCI team, the sky’s the limit when it comes to opportunity and advancement within our organization.

Just as our company is always setting and meeting new goals, we recognize the importance of providing our team members with opportunities to excel personally and professionally as well. When you join the TCI team, you can expect competitive wages, performance bonuses, and a very attractive benefits package. And, like you, we have families too and understand the importance of having paid time off so you can rejuvenate and spend quality time with loved ones.

Driver Referral Programs

The demand for additional drivers in the industry is overwhelming, and we’re entrusting our existing drivers to help us recruit! We know there’s no better way for potential new hires to learn about driving with TCI than to talk one-on-one with you. TCI’s Driver Referral Program can help you earn extra cash during the process.

Gerry Flynn Scholarship

We value education and strongly encourage employees and family members to earn a college degree, which is why we offer our annual Gerry Flynn Scholarship Program. As a member of the TCI family, if you or any of your children are currently enrolled in a school you’ll be eligible to apply. The program has no age limit and eligible veterans are also encouraged to apply.
