Express CR IncBuilt on family roots

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.

Our story

Our family's transportation journey began in the 2000s with the founding of ASAP Trans. In 2026 their oldest daughter built Express CR as her own independent carrier, creating a new company with its own identity, operations and vision.

Today, Express CR carries forward the values and industry knowledge developed through our family's years in transportation while building its own future as an independent carrier.

Who we are, day to day

Express CR Inc hauls full truckload dry van freight. We run a nationwide operation, with orientation based at our office and yard in Lemont, Illinois, about thirty minutes south-west of Chicago.

We are a driver-first carrier by necessity as much as principle. A fleet this size cannot afford a revolving door, so the things drivers actually care about — assigned trucks, a dispatcher who knows your name, settlements that land on time — are operational priorities rather than recruiting slogans.

What we haul

Full truckload dry van, predominantly drop and hook. Our drivers do not touch freight. For shippers, that means straightforward nationwide capacity with a fleet of late-model equipment behind it.

Verify us

Any driver considering a carrier should check the public record first, and we would rather you did. Our USDOT number is 4321984 and our MC number is 1686398. Both can be looked up on the FMCSA SAFER system, along with our safety rating and inspection history.
