USF Bestway, Scottsdale, Ariz., has opened its state-of-the-art service center in Fontana, Calif.,
significantly increasing its capacity in the burgeoning Southern California corridor.
The 25-acre, 167-loading door service center represents the single largest construction project in the history of USFreightways Corporation.
"The importance of the Los Angeles basin in serving the national and global marketplace cannot be understated," said USFreightways Chairman, President, and CEO Samuel K. Skinner.
"A detailed analysis of our customers' shipments reveals that 62% of them move from, to, or through the Los Angeles Basin," said USF Bestway President Gary Beggs during the ribbon-cutting ceremony.
The size of the new Fontana Service Center represents a 400% increase in loading doors, and a 500% increase in yard space over its previous Fontana location, with 75,000 square feet of dock space and a nine-bay computerized drive-through maintenance shop.
Veteran trucking industry executive Bob Bohi is the Terminal Manager of the new Fontana facility, which is located immediately adjacent to Interstate 10 at 10661 Etiwanda Avenue.
The completion of the Fontana terminal caps a two-year expansion and improvement of USF Bestway's infrastructure which includes a new terminal in Las Vegas, Nevada and larger facilities in El Paso, Waco, and Dallas, Texas and Fresno, Sacramento and Santa Clara, California.
