About Us

ABOUT

Founder Willie Stroup started his trucking journey at the young age of sixteen transporting loads on nights and weekends after school. He had a pride for equipment and dedication for service that he would carry with him into all future endeavors. 

Throughout the 1980s Willie and his wife Lorna transported jet engines as Owner Operators with their own Truck for the industry leading company, Southern Pride Trucking. During their time driving with the company, Willie and Lorna won local and national truck shows all while making a name for themselves and providing unmatched service and quality.

In 1988, Willie, along with his brother Randy, started First Class Services.
 
For 17 years, the Brothers offered outstanding customer service, focused primarily in dry bulk freight.
 
In 2005, Willie, along with his wife Lorna and son Dakota, moved on from First Class Services to form Time Dedicated Carriers Inc.

In 2010 Willie introduced the iconic paint scheme that is featured across all of our trucks today, and is the core of our visual identity.

By 2014 he introduced the eye catching double light bar design on all new trailers, creating the ultimate one-two punch in the trucking industry

Through the dedicated hard work and perseverance of these three, along with the help of a few great employees early on, Time Dedicated Carriers has grown into America’s Finest carrier of liquid chemicals and commodities.

Here at Time D.C., we believe that good honest people and positive relationships are the foundation on which all successful business takes place.

Ownership of the Company still remains 100% local, being between Willie and his Wife Lorna and their Son Dakota.

 

From humble beginnings to becoming an Industry name that is synonymous with quality dedication you can trust; Time Dedicated Carriers is part of a larger trucking family, with an emphasis on family. Willie’s brother Randy Stroup still owns First Class Services today, and they are also joined by their cousin who owns Farmers Oil Company in Kansas.
