Why Sugar Creek Was Built—and Who We Serve

It All Started With a College Dream—and a Bigger Vision

Before the trucks, the dispatch boards, and the cross-country hauls, Sugar Creek Transportation was just an idea on a college campus. Monica Byers, our founder, wrote a business plan for a woman-led trucking company—long before diversity in logistics was on anyone’s radar.

But that classroom project was more than a grade. It was a blueprint for change.

In an industry dominated by tradition and often resistant to innovation, Monica saw an opportunity to build something different: a freight company that put people before profit, culture before cold transactions, and consistency before shortcuts.

Built for Drivers Who Deserve Respect and Work-Life Balance

Too many CDL drivers are overworked, underpaid, and treated like numbers. At Sugar Creek, we’ve flipped the script. We’re proud to be one of Southern California’s fastest-growing carriers—not just because of our freight lanes, but because of how we treat the drivers behind the wheel.

Why Drivers Choose Us:

Predictable weekly pay and set schedules
Home time that respects family life
$2,000 sign-on bonuses for company drivers
Dispatchers who treat you like part of the team—not just a truck number

We’re not here to be the biggest. We’re here to be the best place a driver ever worked.

Designed for Clients Who Expect More From Their Carriers

Shippers today need more than a truck—they need a reliable partner. Sugar Creek was built to serve freight clients who are tired of late deliveries, poor communication, and avoidable claims.

What We Deliver:

Claim-free, on-time service across 48 states
Drop trailer and expedited shipping options
Real-time tracking in every trailer
Transparent quotes and consistent communication

From food distributors to big-box retailers, our clients stay with us because we move freight with integrity, hustle, and precision.

A Company Rooted in Purpose

Everything we do comes back to our core belief: logistics can be personal, and still be powerful. That belief has shaped every hire, every policy, and every mile since 2014.

Today, Sugar Creek Transportation is more than a freight company. We’re a movement—one that honors drivers, empowers women in leadership, and redefines what trustworthy shipping looks like.
