There are many facets and faces of Zimmerman Truck Lines. Check out each area below to find out how and why ZTL is a great place to work. You can learn more about the company’s history, our involvement in the community, the late-model, well-maintained equipment we have for sale, and our team led by the third Zimmerman generation.

85 Years young
Zimmerman Truck Lines is located in rural central Pennsylvania. The benefits of being located in this area include a workforce with a solid work ethic. Because of this, you can count on ZTL for honesty, reliability, and accountability.
Being located in a rural area does not mean Zimmerman Truck Lines is “behind the times.” In fact, our situation is quite the opposite. In the last few years, Zimmerman Truck Lines has completely upgraded our dispatching and billing procedures, making Zimmerman a leader in information technology. We utilize the most up-to-date mileage software, GPS tracking and terrestrial communication, document imaging (with customer access), fuel and route optimization, triple-redundant fiber-optic Internet connections, and EDI.
Today, our customers and drivers alike enjoy unprecedented support and service. For our drivers, we provide comfortable, clean, late-model trucks, in-cab communications with touch-screen color terminals, predefined fueling solutions, excellent home time, along with superior pay and benefits. Our customers have access to a special portal to track their loads and access our document imaging system so they can retrieve documents at any time.
Still, we haven’t forgotten our roots and the hard work of those who paved the way before us. We continue to work hard daily to uphold the traditions of quality and accountability they established.
