About Heart of a Lion
Built With the Heart to Move.
Heart of a Lion Trucking was founded in 2021 in New York City with a simple idea: be the trucking company that actually shows up — on time, prepared, and ready to work.
Our Story
A company built on reliability in a city that demands it.
New York City is one of the most demanding freight environments in the world. Tight streets, strict delivery windows, building access restrictions, and clients who can't afford a missed pickup. We built Heart of a Lion to meet that standard.
We operate across Brooklyn, the Bronx, and Manhattan as our core territory — with regular service throughout the five boroughs, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Connecticut.
We are a direct carrier, not a broker. That means when you book with us, you get us — not a third party, not an unvetted subcontractor. We handle freight transportation, airport cargo pickup, jobsite deliveries, white-glove service, and commercial logistics ourselves.
What separates us from larger carriers? We answer the phone. We communicate directly. And when something comes up, we deal with it — we don't pass the problem back to you.
We Answer the Phone
No voicemail loops. No automated systems. You call, we pick up. That's a promise — not a marketing line.
Direct Carrier
We are not a broker. We own and operate the trucks. When you hire us, we show up — not a subcontractor you've never met.
Reliability First
In NYC, reliability is rare. We built the business around it. Your load gets picked up on time, handled right, and delivered where you need it.
Direct Communication
You'll always know where your freight stands. Transparent updates, real-time responsiveness, no guesswork.
Where We Operate
NYC and the Northeast — fully covered.
Airport service at JFK, LaGuardia (LGA), and Newark (EWR). Long-distance and out-of-state freight handled by custom quote.
