OTR Express, Inc.
 PROFILE
Truckload carrier OTR Express is on the road for more than 600 customers -- but maybe not for much longer. As a dry van transportation company specializing in long-haul, full-truckload service, OTR operates throughout the continental US, primarily east of the Rocky Mountains and in the Los Angeles area. The company ships goods such as paper, food, and furniture, and it also offers logistics services. Faced with slowing freight demand and higher fuel prices, OTR has reduced regional short-haul operations and is focusing more attention on its Kansas City hub. The company also has sold off trucks and trailers in an effort to regain profitability. However, OTR has announced plans to liquidate its operations.
