Founded in 1890 by Cornelius William Owens and Julia Owens in Manhattan, Owens Truckmen began as a grocery delivery service using horse-drawn wagons. As the business evolved, it transitioned to motorized transport just before World War I, replacing horses with trucks and expanding into hauling construction materials for iconic New York City landmarks. Over the decades, the company adapted through economic upheavals, wars, and industry changes, maintaining its core focus on dependable, customer-driven service. Today, Owens Truckmen operates from a secure yard near major ports and piers, offering same-day and next-day service with a team experienced in handling complex freight needs, including export loading and specialized permit requirements.
