Case Study: Pacific Star Nursery Transportation achieves steady local loads and schedule flexibility with Convoy

What Juan Garcia has Learned After 15+ Years in Trucking

Pacific Star Nursery Transportation, led by owner-operator Juan “JG” Garcia, is a Fresno-based local dry-van carrier that balances a family-first schedule with high operating costs and a soft freight market. Facing fluctuating rates, rising fuel and maintenance expenses, and the need for reliable, fairly paid loads, JG turned to Convoy’s load-booking platform to secure local dry-van work and book loads a week in advance.

With Convoy, JG now runs 100% of his loads through the platform, getting prompt support, competitive pay, and the scheduling flexibility to be home frequently; he’s used Convoy for two years and is recognized as a top carrier for safe, timely service. Convoy’s service helped Pacific Star Nursery Transportation maintain steady revenue during a weak market, reduce downtime with week‑ahead bookings, and keep the business running full time.
