Major Transportation Services roots go way back to 1952, when it was incorporated as Major Transport Inc by Ed Lampsa from Palmyra, Wisconsin.

Mark and Greg Lurvey gained ownership of Major Transport Inc in 1990. The Lurvey brothers owned and operated a sod farm in Whitewater, Wisconsin, so they decided to move the trucking operations there to better serve their Lurvey Sod Farm customers’ transportation needs.

In 2018, Major Transport Inc was restructured under the sole ownership of Mark Lurvey and now operates as Major Transportation Services LLC, known casually as “MTS”.
