Performance Transportation Inc.
Performance Transportation Services (PTS) is a North American motor vehicle transport provider based in Vancouver, Canada. The company moves cars and other motor vehicles across the United States and Canada, serving a range of customers including leading auto manufacturers in North America. PTS is a major player in the US car-hauling sector, ranking as the second-leading provider behind Allied Systems Holdings.
PTS has grown through strategic acquisitions, incorporating operations from E&L Transport, Hadley Auto Transport, and Leaseway Auto Carrier Group. This expansion has contributed to a sizable fleet of roughly 1,800 tractor-trailer combinations and operations from about 30 terminals, enabling coverage across extensive geographic networks.
With financial backing from the investment firm Yucaipa Companies, PTS emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in 2007, marking a significant milestone in its corporate history. The company’s composition reflects a diversified portfolio built through acquisitions to bolster scale and service capabilities in the vehicle transportation sector.
Overall, Performance Transportation focuses on providing reliable, cross-border motor vehicle transport services within North America, leveraging a broad asset base and regional terminal presence to support auto manufacturers and related clients.
