With more than 70 years in business, Summers Trucking is recognized as the premier oversize precast hauler in the northeast. In addition to hauling oversize precast, Summers provides expertise in hauling modular buildings, custom façade systems, prefab steel, machinery, and specialty loads for NASA. The company’s specialty is parking garages but their experience and wide range of trailer inventory allows them the capability to any commodity requiring a special touch.

Lester R. Summers, Inc., also known as “Summers Trucking”, was started by Lester R. Summers and Dorothy R. Summers in 1946. They operated the business from their home in Ephrata, Pennsylvania. The company initially hauled sand from Maryland to a concrete block and ready mix concrete plant in Ephrata. The trucks also hauled concrete blocks and related materials from Ephrata to local contractors. In 1954, the company moved to Garden Spot Road in Ephrata Township. Lester R. Summers was President of company.

In the spring of 2009, a long-term plan came to fruition when the company more than tripled the size of their terminal by expanding their outdoor storage area and built new office and garage buildings. The new buildings not only provide more space for the growing staff but also include a state-of-the-art garage facility, which allows their in-house technicians to keep the fleet maintained to their high company standards.

World-class customer service is the keystone to the company’s success.  And while “family” is obvious in the bloodlines, the rest of the employees are considered an extended family and the loyalty between the company and the employees can be seen in the many long term employees.  Office Manager Irene Legerlotz (37 years), Estimating Lead Paula Anderson (34 years) and HR Manager Stacey Reddig (30 years) are key reasons that Summers can provide the service that is unparalleled in the trucking industry.  And in a time where industry turnover rates for drivers is hitting record numbers, Summers is proud to say that nearly half of its company drivers have been with the firm 10 years or more.

Presently, Lester R Summers, Inc. hauls concrete products, steel, lumber, modular buildings, commercial windows, machinery and other building materials, as well as sand and stone.
