THE "EMPTY SEAT" PERSPECTIVE
We never forget there is a human being behind the wheel. We communicate with drivers with the same respect we would show Randy himself.

In Honor Of
Randy “Laine” Robinson
“If the wheels are not turning, we're not making money.”
Laine Logistics was born from a steering wheel and a lifetime on the open road. The company carries the name of Randy "Laine" Robinson — a lifelong trucker, a devoted papa, and the man whose hands knew every gearshift between here and the horizon.
Randy spent decades hauling freight across this country. He knew the diners that stayed open late, the scales that ran slow, and the receivers who made you wait. He knew the loneliness of an empty seat on a long night and the pride of a load delivered right.
When his daughter Debra set out to build a brokerage, she did not start with a spreadsheet. She started with a question: what would Randy want from the people booking his loads? The answer was simple. Pick up the phone. Tell the truth. Treat the driver like a human being.
That father-daughter founding story is stitched into everything we do. Debra runs dispatch with cab-level perspective — she knows there is a person behind every truck number, with a family waiting and miles to make.
We built Laine Logistics to redefine the broker-driver relationship. Too many brokers see carriers as a line item. We see them the way Randy would want to be seen: as professionals doing hard, honest work.
That is why we never ghost a carrier. If a load cancels, they hear it from us immediately. We do the paperwork right the first time so a driver does not get stuck at a scale. We communicate, we follow through, and we keep our word.
The rule on the wall is the one Randy lived by: "If the wheels are not turning, we are not making money." It keeps us honest, fast, and focused on what matters — keeping freight moving and keeping people informed.
At Laine Logistics, we don't just move cargo; we uphold a legacy of road-earned integrity, ensuring that every shipper is protected and every carrier is respected.
We never forget there is a human being behind the wheel. We communicate with drivers with the same respect we would show Randy himself.

We don't take shortcuts for quick cash. We are building a company that will stand for as many years as my father spent on the road.
