Atlanta-based Lazer Logistics has acquired three established logistics providers—NetCorp Trailers Inc., EJR Logistics Inc., and Stein & Sons Cartage Contractors Inc.—in a move that expands its operations in Dallas-Fort Worth and Chicago.
The deal marks the company’s 13th acquisition and adds to its capabilities in trailer leasing, yard spotting, and short-haul shuttling.
Lazer, a leading provider of yard management and logistics solutions, said it will “assume all operations that have reliably served more than 20 customers since 2004.”
In a statement, Lazer Logistics CEO Adam Newsome called Dallas-Fort Worth and Chicago “two of the most dynamic logistics markets in the country.” He said the acquisition will give Lazer a stronger presence in both regions and bring the operations of NetCorp, EJR, and Stein & Sons into its existing network.
The deal brings Lazer’s total fleet to more than 11,000 units, adding to its North American logistics solutions, the company said. No financial details of the transaction were disclosed.
Peter Stein, co-founder and CEO of the three acquired companies, will join Lazer as vice president. “We’ve built our reputation on dependable service, safe drivers, and trusted relationships,” Stein said in a statement. “Joining Lazer allows us to grow that legacy with expanded resources and opportunities for both our customers and employees.”
Founded in 1996, Lazer operates in more than 700 locations across the U.S. and Canada, with over 5,800 employees
The company is ranked on the Transport Topics 2025 Top 100 Logistics Companies list and says it operates more than 9 million service hours annually for blue-chip customers across North America.
