Flatbed Hauler Intrenet Inc. Closes Trucking Operations
Intrenet Inc. — one of the nation’s largest flatbed operators and No. 52 on the Transport Topics 100 list — is closing up shop and shutting down its four trucking carriers.
Milford, Ohio-based Intrenet, founded in 1983 and specializing in flatbed carriage, ceased operations Jan. 2 and will move toward liquidation of all its assets, company President John P. Chandler confirmed.
As many as 1,700 employees and 1,100 owner-operators will be dismissed and shareholders probably will not be compensated, the company stated.
Victims include one of the country’s oldest, Eck Miller, launched in 1901.
Intrenet’s fifth and smallest subsidiary, INET Logistics of Denver, will remain in business pending its sale to a buyer yet to be found.
