A Business Built By Family
South East Carriers was founded in 1986 by brothers Joe and Paul Gobble. They started with two employees, two trucks, and one 45-foot dry van. After transitioning from the wholesale lumber business, they set their sights on building their new transportation business one load at a time.
Five years later, they built their current headquarters along with Gobble Properties' first commercial warehouse. Joe and Paul decided to create a "one stop shop" with transportation, warehousing, and material handling (Living Stone Freight Solutions). In 2012, Joe and Paul were able to sell their successful business to the next generation: Jeremy, Tracy, and Kevin.
As of today, South East Carriers has over 275 employees, 225 trucks, 525 53-foot dry vans, with multiple satellite terminals across the U.S. The vision that Joe and Paul had in 1986 has become a reality in 2026. We look forward to seeing what the future holds for the generations to come as they see their own exciting visions come to life.
After all, South East Carriers is a business built by family.
