The Best In The Midwest: Dohrn & Sutton July Update

Posted On 17 July 2025

Thank you for driving growth with us. Your continued trust and support have fueled every mile of our journey — and we couldn’t have done it without you. With Wisconsin and Minnesota now fully transitioned to Dohrn, we’re excited to deliver the same dependable service you know, now with expanded capacity, greater visibility, and even stronger Midwest coverage.

United For What’s Next

We’re pleased to announce that the integration of all former Sutton locations in Wisconsin and Minnesota is now complete. These terminals are now operating fully under the Dohrn name, quadrupling capacity, enhancing freight visibility, and expanding our direct service to the Mid-Atlantic through our sister company. Former Sutton customers can also now enjoy direct service to Iowa, Indiana, and Nebraska.

While this marks a significant milestone, we recognize there is still important work ahead as we continue to scale our operations and advance our regional network.

Momentum Shifts to Missouri

We’re keeping the momentum strong as transition work continues across our Missouri terminals. Everything is progressing on schedule, bringing added strength, consistency, and expanded reach to our growing presence in the Midwest.

  • Springfield, MO: Sutton has merged into the Dohrn terminal sunsetting Sutton in the Southern Missouri region.
  • Kansas City, MO: On track to become an official Dohrn location by mid-July.
  • St. Louis, MO: Freight is steadily moving into the new 85-door terminal.

Missouri’s transition is approaching completion, with full operations anticipated by late July.

Final Phase: Chicago Integration

In August, we’ll complete the final phase of our integration by transitioning the Sutton Chicago terminal to Dohrn. As part of this effort, we are redefining territory lines across our three Northern Illinois terminals to improve efficiency and service coverage. This transition will add 73 dock doors to our network, significantly expanding our capacity in Chicagoland.
