About ATS Logistics Services

ATS Logistics Services is the brokerage and 3PL arm of Anderson Trucking Service (ATS), founded 1989 and headquartered in St. Cloud, Minnesota. ATS Logistics ranked #34 on the Transport Topics 2026 Top 100 with $626 million in gross revenue and $99 million in net revenue. The parent ATS organization was founded in 1955 by Harold Anderson and remains St. Cloud-based, with 5,000+ shipper customers across North America.

Per Transport Topics 2026, ATS Logistics moves rail/intermodal, LTL, and dry van truckload as primary modes, with active reefer, flatbed, and cross-border capability through ATS's specialized and heavy-haul affiliates. The company's positioning combines independent brokerage flexibility with the asset-based depth of a 70-year-old parent carrier.

For shippers evaluating ATS Logistics, the strongest fit is Upper Midwest manufacturing, construction, and consumer-goods freight, particularly programs that benefit from access to ATS's flatbed and specialized capacity. Shippers needing dedicated air, ocean, or expedited as primary modes should benchmark ATS against brokers more focused on those modes.
