ABOUT US

Your One-Stop Transportation Provider

For more than two decades, Nationwide Equipment Transportation has been a trusted partner for companies with critical freight and complex shipping needs. While many logistics companies rely on outdated systems or unreliable communication, NET was built to do better.

NET combines industry grit with modern logistics tech to move equipment that simply can’t afford delays, damage, or doubt. Whether it’s delivering sensitive medical devices, precision electronics, or commercial machinery, NET handles every shipment with clarity, care, and a real-time view of what’s happening from door to door.

Not Just Another Freight Broker

Nationwide Equipment Transportation was built for businesses that need more than basic freight coordination. We think outside the box to solve complex shipping challenges because high-value, sensitive equipment requires more than just a pickup and a drop-off. It demands a partner who understands the stakes, anticipates the variables, and brings clarity to every mile of the journey. From medical devices to industrial machinery, our team delivers tailored solutions with precision, not guesswork.

Meet The Owner

Steve Vest

Founder Steve Vest grew up in the freight world, from a family of truck drivers to launching NET in 2005. With a lifetime of industry experience and a personal commitment to getting it done right, Steve built NET around one goal: to make shipping easier, smarter, and more dependable for every client.

What We Do

Freight Services That Go Beyond

At Nationwide Equipment Transportation, we don’t offer one-size-fits-all freight solutions. We offer tailored, tech-backed logistics strategies designed around your timeline, your freight, and your standards.

Truckload & Partial Direct

When you need full control over your freight from point A to point B, our truckload and partial direct services offer speed, security, and simplicity. NET creates tailored solutions for your product transportation needs, with access to over 10,000 trusted carriers across the country. Whether your shipment requires a 48’ or 53’ van, a refrigerated trailer, a flatbed, or intermodal options, we match your freight with the right equipment and partner.

Less-Than-Truckload

Less-than-truckload shipping allows businesses to share trailer space when a full truckload isn’t necessary, making it a more cost-effective and efficient option. Our LTL solutions are ideal for smaller quantities of high-value freight, with carefully planned consolidation to reduce handling, minimize damage risk, and ensure reliable, on-time delivery.

Blanket Wrap Freight

When crating isn’t the right option but your freight still needs protection, our blanket wrap service provides a secure, padded solution designed to prevent damage throughout the entire shipping process. Ideal for delicate, valuable, or finished goods, blanket wrapping (also known as pad wrap service) helps safeguard your freight from contact during loading, transit, and unloading.

Auction Shipping

NET’s auction shipping services are designed to make the process economical, efficient, and seamless for both buyers and sellers. We coordinate every detail, from pickup and secure transport to timely delivery, while ensuring full compliance with timelines, loading protocols, and site requirements.

Trade Show Freight

Whether your exhibits require delivery to one venue or multiple show sites, NET provides a single, reliable source for all your trade show transportation needs. Our network of experienced, trade show-focused representatives ensures your materials arrive safely, on time, and with full visibility throughout the process.

Asset Recovery

At NET, we partner with companies that want to buy, recycle, or dispose of excess electronic equipment. We can reduce the transportation cost by giving you the best value for your equipment. Let us take control of your used inventory.

Are You Prepared Against Supply Chain Fraud?

Freight fraud is one of the fastest-growing threats in logistics today. Whether it is from stolen loads or identity theft, supply chain fraud can cost shippers millions in lost cargo and damaged reputation.

As a shipper, don’t allow fraud to affect your next shipment.
