About Express CR
Built on family roots. Driven by the next generation.
Express CR is a family-owned, women-owned transportation company built on a longstanding family tradition in the trucking industry.
Founded independently in May 2026 by the next generation of the ASAP Trans Corporation family, founded in the 2000s, Express CR was created with a vision of building a carrier of its own — combining the values of hard work, integrity and reliability with a modern approach to transportation.
While our roots run deep in the industry, Express CR operates as its own independent carrier, with its own identity, operations and business relationships.
We are proud to carry forward a family legacy while building something uniquely ours.
