Black George LLC is a small, owner-run dry van carrier out of Wonder Lake, Illinois. We keep the fleet small on purpose: every truck is driven by an experienced owner-operator who treats your freight as their own business, because it is.
53' dry van, general freight, coast to coast. One pickup, one delivery, one driver who answers the phone.
Owner-maintained trucks, disciplined trip planning and honest ETAs. If a schedule slips, you hear it from us first, not from the receiver.
Talk directly to the owners. No dispatch maze, no call center. Straight answers on rates, lanes and capacity.
We are not a mega-fleet. We are a handful of professional, independent owners who run under one authority and hold each other to one standard.
Clean record, your own well-kept tractor and a professional attitude. That is the whole list. Call the owners directly or send a short note below.
“The name on the door is a promise about how we work.”
Black George is the English name of Karađorđe Petrović, the leader of the First Serbian Uprising of 1804 and founder of the Karađorđević line. His coat of arms, the crowned helmet and the monogram on the shield, is the emblem you see on our buttons and on our trucks.
We chose it for what it stands for: courage, independence and loyalty to the people who count on you. A small company with a big name has to earn it every single load.
The owner, Nemanja Grujić, is not in an office watching a screen. He drives one of the trucks himself, on the same lanes and the same schedule as everyone else. The paperwork and dispatch are handled by two people who know every driver by first name. That is the whole company, and that is on purpose: when the owner is behind the wheel, nobody gets treated like a number.
A small company cannot hide behind averages. Every unit, every driver, every inspection is visible to the owner, and that is exactly how we like it.
Each tractor belongs to the person driving it. When a breakdown comes out of your own pocket, preventive maintenance stops being a checkbox.
The fleet runs on FleetNexus AI: live location and ETAs for shippers, vehicle health and fault codes for the driver, event video when something happens on the road. Modern tools, no one looking over the driver's shoulder.
Hours of service on electronic logs, drug & alcohol program, DOT-compliant driver files. Ask us for our numbers, we will show you.
We take owner-operators only. If you own your tractor, keep it right, hold a clean CDL-A and run like a professional, we want to talk.
Dry van, 48 states, home time that is respected. Bring your tractor, your record and your standards. We bring the authority, the freight and an office that picks up the phone.
Call the owners directly at (779) 396-0370. Ten minutes tells us both whether it is a fit.
