Dave Koch started K&J Trucking in 1979 with the idea of eventually becoming one of the industry’s top refrigerated providers. By working together with his family, this dream finally became a possibility. Sticking with the speedy and simplistic route almost never pays off. That is why we run the finest equipment, utilize the latest technology, and take care of our team. And customer service is still our number one priority. Eighty percent of our fleet is made up of owner-operators and twenty percent is company drivers. If your goal is to stay a company truck driver we have drivers who have been with us for over 35 years. And if your goal is to own your own truck, we have a great owner-operator support and training program and non-predatory lease options.

the trade-in cycle keeps things fresh without being too frequent
When they make sure we're comfy, it means the rigs run smoother and break down less.
K & J Trucking is a cornerstone of our local economy
All in all, I'd highly recommend K & J
There is no perfect place to work but K&J is very close! I’ve been driving for K&J for 3 years and plan on retiring here. K&J treats their drivers with respect and everyone is known by their first name. Family owned and professionally operated.
There drivers are unqualified , and incompetent . And should be properly trained on how to maintain their vehicle in there own travel lane .’! Beware of there drivers who are at fault , and don’t appreciate a helping hand . There safety department needs to step up to the plate , and resolve issues brought too their attention .
Great people great opportunity!
Amazing family oriented place to work for. everyone is literally like family
Family owned Company, who treats you like Family! EXCELLENT EQUIPMENT! Trucks and Trailers are never more then 5 or 6 years old.. Customer service is Excellent! Delivery time is Excellent! A+++++
I have a friend that has worked there for years. Wonderful company with a great website and YouTube Channel.
Exceptionally Excellent 👍👍👍👍👍. Great group of people to work with. Amazingly well maintained latest model equipment. Awesomely secure network of companies that we serve. Unless they grow tired of me this will be the company that gets me into my retirement.
I am 5 years in with K&J Trucking and have zero complaints. Upper management, Dispatch, Safety, the shop, and support staff are all top-notch and readily available should help be needed. Come with a Class A CDL, good work ethic, common sense, and honesty and you will be successful here.
Great people here. Their shop is far better than any others. No comparison! They are fast skilled, and thorough. Go in and talk to Mack, you’ll be glad you did! They did lots of maintenance on my heavy wrecker. I wouldn’t consider going anywhere else. And neither should you
Looking for a truck shop or truck wash in the area? Come here! The best shop I’ve ever been to and the only one to take your big trucks! They have a 3 bay truck wash area. A crew of mechanics that knows their job and works to get stuff done and out of there. Mack is the shop manager, he is the go to guy. Not only are they the best, but also very friendly people. And very fair prices. Another thing that is very important is they aren’t weeks backed up like almost every other shop. Stop in, you’ll be glad you did. And you’ll never go anywhere else again if you can control it
Great place to work. A lot of good people to work with.

I have been driving for K&J 7 years, and I have found them to be an outstanding place to work. They manage their business well and it shows to the drivers.
I came to K & J as part of the acquisition of Midwest and Continental. I was extremely worried after spending 21 years with MCI. They where my family. I could never have imagined leaving but it happened. From the minute I met the K & J team they made me feel at ease. They all new my name as if I had spent 21 years here . This group here has been amazing. The dispatch group keep you busy the office group take care of you. Safety Jennifer and DJ understand that They they have a completely different way of doing things and have a way of helping you see the bigger picture. They are there to keep us out of trouble. The owner Shelley there arnt any words to say about her. She is what made this whole transition easier. And the Mechanics. I don't know all there names yet but they all know who I am. Mack the shop boss keeps this whole show going. While those under him work just as hard to get the trucks in and out. Calab and Cade are the two that I know best. There just great to be around. This group of people are happy and happy people make everything roll smoothly. I've never meet a group more caring about the drivers then K&J. If your looking for a permanent place to work. Look no further this is where you want to be.
Excellent service, great people, always willing to help! They always get my truck in right away and get it done when they say they will! Thanks for the great service and keeping me truckin!
They bought out my old company and now I'm going to be working with K & J trucking. Very polite and friendly staff and family.
Great place to work.
Due to personal reasons I had to leave K & J Trucking. As happy as I am to be able to go home and stay to take care of things, I am just as sad to be leaving such a great company. If your looking for a “home” in trucking this is the place. Drivers are treated with the utmost respect from the owner to office personnel to the shop. I was told by everyone there when I first started that they were all there for the drivers. This was not just lip service it was indeed the way I was treated while there. K & J was by far the best Road job I ever had in my 40+ years of trucking. If you want to work somewhere where you get the respect you deserve this is the place for you. Respect, miles and great equipment that is well maintained. Thank you for all the great memories K & J. Safe Travels All.
Friendly team and easy to work with in a family-run business.
Great workplace with helpful and relaxed people. They complete tasks efficiently. Six years here have been enjoyable. The company specializes in hauling wood chips.
Ideal for new drivers or those aiming to become owner-operators. The dispatch and office team help arrange preferred routes and ensure needed home time.
One of the highest-paying trucking companies in Sioux Falls, offering great benefits, consistent mileage, and flexible scheduling. Excellent management and top-quality equipment. I would have stayed if my circumstances hadn’t changed.
A family-run business with kind and supportive people! I would still work there if I didn’t need to be home every night. Best suited for those comfortable being away from home.
Keep personal beliefs to yourself—focus on the job and stay quiet. Besides that, this company is an excellent place to work. The pay is reasonable, benefits could use improvement, and you’ll get to know your dispatchers personally.
