Holland (TFI International) Overview

Holland is a regional LTL carrier primarily serving the Central and Southeastern United States. Founded in 1929 in Holland, Michigan, the company has a long history of providing next-day and two-day LTL service within its operating region. Holland is now part of TFI International, alongside TForce Freight (formerly UPS Freight) and several other carriers.

Holland's focus on regional LTL service means shorter haul lengths and more consistent routes compared to national carriers. This translates to predictable schedules and reliable home time for drivers. The company operates from approximately 55 terminals concentrated in the Midwest, Great Lakes, and Southeast regions.

The TFI International ownership has brought changes to Holland's operations, with some integration of resources across TFI's carrier portfolio. Driver experiences vary by terminal, with some locations maintaining the traditional Holland culture while others have shifted under TFI's management approach.

Holland (TFI International) FAQs

Is Holland the same as TForce Freight?
No, Holland and TForce Freight are separate carriers, but both are owned by TFI International. Holland focuses on regional LTL service in the Central and Southeast, while TForce Freight (formerly UPS Freight) is a national LTL carrier. They operate independently with separate terminals, routes, and management, though there is some corporate-level integration.
What region does Holland serve?
Holland primarily serves the Central and Southeastern United States, with a concentration of terminals in the Midwest, Great Lakes, and Southeast regions. Key states include Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Tennessee, and Georgia. They do not provide nationwide coverage like XPO or Old Dominion.
How much do Holland drivers make?
Holland city drivers earn $23-$30/hour depending on terminal location, with annual earnings of $55,000-$72,000 including overtime. Linehaul drivers earn mileage-based pay with annual earnings of $68,000-$85,000 for experienced drivers. Pay varies by location.
Is Holland a union company?
Holland's union status varies by terminal. Some locations are represented by the Teamsters while others are non-union. This is different from carriers like ABF or TForce Freight where most locations are union. Check with the specific terminal you're applying to for their union status.
How has TFI International ownership changed Holland?
TFI International's ownership has brought both opportunities and challenges. The company has access to more resources and a larger freight network, but some longtime Holland drivers report changes to operational procedures, routing, and management culture. TFI is known for cost-focused management, which has created friction at some terminals. The experience varies significantly by location.
