Through the swift development of the trucking division, Boyd and Sons, Inc. saw the prospect to also expand their farming operation. In the early 80’s convertible trailers were purchased to convey their farm commodities to terminals all over the south. These innovative trailers would then convert into a flatbed to suitably haul lumber back to locations in the north. Soon trade routes from their southern Indiana farm were established to Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, and a number of other southern states. With well-established routes Boyd and Sons, Inc. continued marketing to southern terminals well into the mid 90’s. In around this time grain from the farming operation was being marketed locally. The fleets of convertible trailers were no longer necessary, and they were gradually replaced with new spread axle flatbeds. Over the next decade Boyd and Sons, Inc. would continue to develop establishing dedicated flatbed routes moving Steel, Aluminum, and Lumber all over the lower 48 states. Today Boyd and Sons, Inc. is proud of the quality service and excellence they provide to the trucking industry.
