Chief Logistics Delivers the Ultimate in Security: Transporting Nebraska State Patrol BearCats

Chief Logistics Delivers the Ultimate in Security: Transporting Nebraska State Patrol BearCats

When it comes to protecting our communities, the Nebraska State Patrol relies on the best equipment available. That’s why we’re proud to share that they entrusted Chief Logistics, in partnership with our sister company Chief Carriers, with the safe and secure transportation of two new Lenco BearCats, tactical vehicles designed to handle high-risk situations.

Chief Logistics was honored to have been chosen for this important task, as it demonstrates our commitment to providing reliable and secure transportation solutions, even for the most demanding cargo.

Chief Logistics: Equipped for Any Challenge

This wasn’t just any delivery; it was a testament to the trust and confidence the Nebraska State Patrol places in Chief Logistics and Chief Carriers. It’s well known that the Chief company motto is “Trusted. Tested. True.” This was an ideal opportunity to put those words into action.

Everyone involved in this project understood the BearCats’ vital role in keeping our communities safe. Our team of experienced professionals worked diligently to ensure the smooth and efficient transport of these critical vehicles to the Nebraska State Patrol Headquarters.

Chief Logistics Teams Up With Chief Carriers

The delivery was a coordinated effort between Chief Logistics and our sister company, Chief Carriers. Chief Carriers selected Nick Longo, one of their lease operators, to transport the first BearCat, while Chief Logistics hired Sunway Carriers, an outside carrier, to transport the second BearCat. Representatives from both Chief divisions were present to celebrate this joint accomplishment.

This partnership highlights the unique advantage of having both asset-based and brokerage services within the Chief family. 

Chief Carriers provides direct transportation solutions with its own fleet of flatbed trucks, while Chief Logistics arranges shipments through a network of partner carriers when Chief Carriers’ assets are unavailable. This dual approach guarantees reliable and flexible shipping options, no matter the customer’s needs or the scale of the shipment.
