Terminal Manager

Greenbush Logistics was born out of service to the parent company, Great Southern Wood Preserving, Incorporated (the largest distributor of pressure-treated pine in the nation). Greenbush Logistics cut its teeth in the time-and service-sensitive freight management industry.

This knowledge has helped us cultivate a reputation as a trusted freight management source.

That's why we take great pride in seeing our employees (and their families) succeed in life. Every day, members of the GLI family come to work with one goal: to exceed customer expectations. By providing timely deliveries and unparalleled service, we strengthen a relationship that will grow in the years to come.
