Who We Are

KTI makes long term partners by making logistics easy, better, and more cost effective. We’re a logistics partnership company. Starting in 1995 in Pennsylvania, the Head Honcho (aka KTI’s President) Leland King started KTI as a part-time business. After Leland graduated YEARS ago, he started driving over the road for a trucking company. Then he got a real job as an Industrial Engineer. Fast forward to 1995, the trucking bug bit again. From 1995 to today, lots has happened. First, the headquarters moved from Pennsylvania to Pulaski, Virginia; and second, the company became a full-time business. Finally, KTI started doing a lot more than just trucking.

Principles & Values

  • Family Owned and Operated. If there’s one thing we’re most proud about, it’s the fact that this is a family business. And we treat our partners like family.
  • Asset Based. We own our trucks, outright. We also use our trucks for each pickup and delivery. We also own our trailers.
  • Partnerships are our Business.  You’re not a customer, You’re a Partner. We’re not a trucking company, We’re your Logistics Partner. We just happen to own a few trucks.

Operations: How we Provide Top of the Line Service at Affordable Rates

Everything we do goes back to lowering costs. We have a shop and do all the maintenance on our trucks to reduce costs. We’re located in a small town to reduce the rent, taxes, and license costs.
