Averitt has announced the opening of its new service center in Tyler, Texas, strategically located near Interstate 20. This facility, covering 20,500 square feet with 33 dock doors, significantly increases Averitt’s capacity, enabling faster and more efficient freight handling for customers in one of Texas' fastest-growing markets.

The new center is designed to streamline operations with expanded dock space, two on-site fuel islands, and secure parking. These upgrades enable Averitt to provide more reliable, timely service to customers, while also enhancing the work environment for associates through modern amenities such as break areas and new restrooms and showers.

“Our new Tyler facility is a major step forward in our ability to serve customers across East Texas and beyond,” said Bryan Walters, Tyler service center director. “With improved infrastructure and increased capacity, we’re positioned to meet the growing needs of our customers, delivering the high-quality service they expect from Averitt.”

This facility also marks the debut of Averitt’s newly redesigned signage, featuring a streamlined Averitt logo and updated color scheme that matches Averitt’s fleet of equipment, associates' uniforms, and reflects the modern evolution of its brand.
