Hilco Transport is a Diverse Company!

In 1998 the company purchased 31 acres of land off of Highway 68 in Greensboro to build a state of-the-art facility as the corporate headquarters of their operation. With construction completed in 1999, the three generations represented at Hilco Transport/Long Brothers expanded and diversified their services and coverage. It was at this time that Hilco Transport began hauling municipal solid waste. This division continues to grow as a major service offered to this day and provides waste transportation services to a broad range of industrial customers.

In 2003, Long Brothers and Hilco Transport transformed into two separate companies with Charles and Gurney operating Hilco and Charles’ daughter Wendi operating Long Brothers. Shortly after, the structure of Hilco Transport, Inc. would change forever as the Long family faced yet another tragic an untimely passing of Charles Long.

Hilco Transport forged on to diversify into the liquid propane business in 2005. Through dedication and hard work, the family has grown this division into being the third largest propane carrier in North Carolina. A few years later, construction would begin on a new facility in Kannapolis, North Carolina. Then in 2010, Lada Trucklines was acquired in Duncan, SC to further strengthen coverage and services.
