Started as the over-the-road extension of Jerry Ottery Milk Trucking in 1990. The firm comprised three tractors that transported railroad tank containers from the rail yards in Chicago to juice plants in the Midwest. Throughout the 90s, Herb and Pat expanded the company by offering over-the-road tanker service. The company grew to 27 power units until they merged with Jerry Ottery Milk Trucking in April of 2005

I can't say enough good things about them! From the moment I reached out for a quote, their customer service was top-notch
My colleagues were impressed, and I felt like a rockstar!
Definitely gonna use them again
No hidden fees!
Got a Hopper washed out here. A+ Service. Great people. Highly recommend
Ottery Trucking is an amazingly clean environment with employees who value their work. They're truly respected and I am proud to be in the same community with such an honorable company.
Used the Tank wash Services, Was treated with respect and serviced expediently.
Be very, very careful driving near their drivers. One of the drivers ran me off the road, did not stop and then when I called the company they didn't want to take responsibility for it at all and I'm sure the driver still works there.
Excellent place to drive for. Great family atmosphere!
Don't go here for a trailer wash they said they not wash trailers there👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻
Call before you go or you will sit half your day before someone will get to you lol
Work. Trucking business. One of the greatest
Fantastic place to work. The Ottery Brothers are incredible people and awesome people.
Best place to work for fun family oriented and they treat all the employees with respect that they deserve hands down !!!
Not a good place to work they go through they ain't very fair you get local work for over the road pay
We get our tanks washed here allot! They work really hard to keep up with us bringing in tanks, nice people that work in the tank wash department and the facility is new and clean
Thank you for employing great people!! I had the luck to meet one of them. My truck needed a jump start just now in Zion, IL and lucky me your guy came to ask me if I needed help before he was about to pull off. He stayed until we got my truck started and I was back on the road. Thanks again, God Bless!
I started working for Ottery Bro’s in October of 2018. They gave me an opportunity to drive for them and sent me to Fox Valley to refresh my driving skills. Thank you for spending time and money on me. Pat Ottery is a good employer and was patient with teaching me to be a successful driver. Kelley S was a good dispatcher and was also a big help in my success. Herb Ottery was also instrumental in my success with their company. If I was asked to drive for them again, I’d definitely say, yes absolutely. Thank all of you again!!!.
Really good place. All the workers are nice and quick place to load.
Former driver here.... let's just be clear... this place pays their drivers .36-.39cents a mile, no bonuses (fuel, safety ect ect) and everything they told you at the beginning of employment is a lie, Just to get you in the door and drive. Your late to every scheduled appointment because of poor communication and as the driver you take the brunt of the complaints and they blame the driver when the customer calls. Companies like this are what kills the trucking industry.
Best pneumatic trailer and liquid tanker washout in 150 mile radius. The washout guys take good care on cleaning out the inside of the trailer.
Great place to work. Owners are on site, still drive, a true open door policy company
And I quote "us letting you come home to see your family is a privilege, not a right" ~ dispatch
They have a nice drivers /lunch room with a big screen tv n lots of channels
Very nice place to work, nice equipment. Big company but great family owned company.
Great place to work. Awesome people.
The job itself is fine, though management wasn't always honest. The pay was excellent, and work was steady—rarely any downtime. The safety director was a fantastic advocate for drivers.
**Best part of working at the company:** Everyone is supportive and friendly. Great pay, and they’re flexible with time-off requests. **Most stressful part:** No major stress—just occasional waiting at the dairy, but that’s expected. **Work environment and culture:** Strong team-oriented atmosphere. People are eager to assist and answer questions whenever needed. **Typical day:** Stay on top of your tasks and the day runs smoothly.
High-quality equipment, with dedicated owners and mechanics ensuring everything runs properly. Management is willing to collaborate. Owners maintain an open-door policy and are readily available on-site.
A family-owned business with the third generation taking on greater responsibilities. Drivers are treated with respect and professionalism. They go above and beyond to accommodate requested time off or emergencies. Consistent freight lanes with friendly customers. Drop-and-hook system is arranged whenever possible. Owners hold CDL licenses and step in when needed. Equipment is regularly maintained and kept in excellent condition.
I truly enjoyed working for Ottery. Personal circumstances led to my departure, but the company itself was outstanding. They foster a family-like environment and care about their employees. If I had the chance, I would have stayed.
Overall, a fantastic company. Everyone is supportive, understanding, and great to work with. Most employees have a good sense of humor and embrace the challenges of an ever-evolving industry.
A typical day involves inspecting the truck and trailer to ensure they are road-ready, then picking up and delivering freight.
Drivers are generally treated well. Management can be fair, though experiences vary. If you focus on your work without questioning processes, you’ll do fine here.
