Artur Express Launches Tank Unit

Artur Express Inc. announced that it has added a new tanker division.

The statement from the St. Louis-based company said Artur Express Liquid Services will provide specialized service of bulk transportation of hazardous and nonhazardous materials.

“It’s a narrowly defined industry,” said Todd Barbour, operations manager of the unit, “given the expensive and complex nature of our equipment, the skillfulness required of our drivers and the increased regulatory environment facing our business, tanker carriers deal with many unique challenges within the industry.”

Artur Express also offers truckload, leasing, intermodal and brokerage services.
