About ITS Logistics
ITS Logistics is a full-service 3PL and freight broker headquartered in Reno, Nevada, founded in 1999. Backed by private equity, ITS has grown to $1.09B in gross brokerage revenue (2024, Transport Topics #20) through a combination of organic growth and strategic acquisitions. With approximately 1,500 employees, ITS is one of the larger independent 3PLs in the Western United States, offering an integrated suite of freight brokerage, warehousing, and final-mile delivery services.
ITS Logistics' geographic core is the Western US — California, Nevada, Arizona, and the Pacific Northwest — where the company has spent over two decades building carrier relationships and warehouse infrastructure. Shippers with distribution centers in the West or significant inbound freight volume from Western ports and distribution hubs will find ITS's carrier network particularly dense. Transcon intermodal lanes (Los Angeles to Chicago, Seattle to Midwest) are a core strength, reflecting both the company's Western roots and its intermodal capabilities.
Beyond brokerage, ITS offers warehousing across its national network, drayage services, and final-mile delivery — making it one of the few mid-tier brokers that can manage a full supply chain from port to consumer in the Western US. FTL dry van, LTL, intermodal, refrigerated, and flatbed are all active modes. Managed transportation is available for shippers seeking outsourced freight management.
