Our History
T & T Trucking was founded in 1956 in the town of Lodi, California (population 35,000) located 30 miles south of Sacramento, and 90 miles east of San Francisco in the fertile San Joaquin Valley by two humble men, Rudy Tarditi and Clarence Taylor.  They started with two flatbed trucks hauling hay.  Rudy handled the administration and Clarence oversaw operations - and both drove the trucks!   Times were tough until 1960 when T & T Trucking started hauling sand - not from the beach, but from foothill mines full of silica sand used for making glass.   Business got a little better and they decided to incorporate in March 1965.   Clarence Taylor well into his 80's has since retired, and founder Rudy Tarditi is watching, proudly from heaven above, his son Terry continue his legacy operating one of the most respected and service oriented bulk trucking companies on the West Coast.  

The Company
In March 2009, we celebrated our 53rd ANNIVERSARY in business hauling bulk raw commodities for the glass and glass container industry (silica sand, limestone and soda ash), cullet (for glass remanufacturing), roofing granules, and agricultural fertilizers (both dry and liquid) among many other commodities. Working with the construction industry, we were pioneers innovating the capability of "blowing" sand with our pneumatic trailers for road culverts drastically reducing man-hour costs.
 
Our Fleet
With our blue and white fleet of over 150 trucks and 200 trailers, including gravity doubles, pneumatic doubles, semi's, and transfers, T & T Trucking serves customers in the seven (7) western states with revenues exceeding 32 million dollars annually.  We also have specialized trailers for specialized jobs such as contaminated storage sites hauling, accident spills, transfer from one trailer to another, or vacuum from the site to deliver or dispose of both wet and dry. Our services are available, On Call 24 Hours per day.

Our Facilities
Our corporate office and main terminal is located in Lodi, California with over 10-acres of facilities and truck parking.  Walnut and cherry orchards, as well as vineyards, as far as the eye can see, surround us.  Our Bakersfield, California terminal, which is over 4-acres, was purchased in 1994 to accommodate our customers in the Southwest United States. We have the newest technologies, computer driven truck and trailer maintenance and fueling facilities at both our Lodi and Bakersfield locations.

Did You Know
DID YOU KNOW...We play a vital role in your everyday life!  The next time you drink a cold bottle of beer, Snapple soda, frappacino or Starbucks iced coffee, have a glass of wine, look outside your car window, open your shower door, or watch your children play outside from inside your house, note that we hauled the raw commodities necessary to make glass happen.   DID YOU KNOW...When given a choice of beer or soda served in glass bottles or aluminum cans over 95% of consumers chose glass!  When have you EVER seen a premium beer commercial using aluminum cans or plastic bottles!  DID YOU KNOW...That glass, discovered centuries ago, having the purest of earth's minerals, imparts no taste or alters any liquid from which it is served, from clinical laboratory test tubes to Budweiser beer.  It can even be made in your garage with three simple ingredients, (silica sand, soda ash and limestone), and will last a lifetime. Despite all of man's technological advances in science, NOTHING has been discovered to replace it!

We sincerely encourage and welcome your visit with us at our headquarters in Lodi to meet our friendly staff and see the resources we have to offer.
