About Summerford Truck Line

Summerford Truck Line is a family-owned flatbed company based in Ashford, Alabama,

Why Drivers Stay

when we say they’ll be, their pay is steady and competitive, and they’re treated like part of

the family, not just a truck number. With nearly a century on the road, we’ve built a culture

where you can build a long-term, stable career—not just your next job.
