Our story…
CAST Transportation started out as South Park Motor Lines. The company was founded in 1948 by husband and wife Richard H. and Lois Eshe “Lody”. Lody’s father, Walter Schattinger, founded a truck line in South Park called “Schattinger and Son”. He strongly encouraged his daughter to carry on the tradition. Lody and Richard had the routine down, Richard drove the trucks while Lody ran the office and at times was recruited as a driver when the work piled up. They made a great team! Richard and Lody passed this passion of trucking on to their son Rick.

HEAVY HAUL
“If it’s too wide, too high, or too ugly, call CAST” – Slogan from the early 1980’s, but still works today.

CAST Transportation’s personnel are highly trained and experienced in heavy hauling. Combined with a large variety of specialized trucking equipment, CAST Transportation can handle the most demanding heavy haul transportation requirements – safely and securely.

In December 1998, CAST transported five (5) locomotives from Craig, CO to Dinosaur, CO. The locomotives were 198 ton each. The trailer had to be made onsite and in 20 below zero weather. CAST succeeded in this project without any incident or frostbite.

In 2005, CAST transported the largest Surface Contaminated load in North America from Rocky Flats, CO to Clive, UT, approximately 600 miles.

CAST also has certified “Pilot Car” drivers. We can pilot your load as well as transport it.
