R+L Carriers Opens New California Service Center
8/5/2025 - Wilmington, Ohio - Ohio-based transportation company R+L Carriers is pleased to announce the opening of a new service center in Bloomington, California (FON). Officially designated the "Fontana" terminal, this opening is part of an ongoing campaign to maximize dock efficiency, on-time service, reduce handling time, keep freight in cycle and lower exception and cargo claims.
The new Fontana service center will replace the previous Fontana location, moving operations just over six miles to the east. Located at 18298 Slover Avenue, the current service center boasts 325 dock doors, a multi-bay maintenance shop, truck wash and over 150,000 square feet of office space. Compared to the original site, the new Fontana terminal features a 350% increase in door capacity. With easy access to Interstate 10, it is well-positioned to deliver freight to surrounding customers in Bloomington, San Bernardino, Riverside, Moreno Valley, Corona and other local markets.
"This facility is currently our company's second largest service center," said Dusty Ruthven, R+L Carriers Chief Operating Officer (COO). "Our new Fontana location will significantly increase freight handling capacity as we expand operations to new and returning customers in Southern California. With each additional service center, R+L Carriers improves the overall efficiency of our nationwide supply chain."
