Freight Carrier…I-5 Corridor and Beyond

BICO Transportation says YES when other haulers say no!!

Customers choose us 5:1 over other local transportation companies because we offer better service, better prices, and better overall value.


What can we haul?

We used to say that we specialized in:

-Flatbed Hotshot Loads (up to 17,000 lbs.)
-Flatbed LTL 
-RV/Auto 
-Sheds (storage sheds, portable buildings)
-Oversize Loads


BUT…

We have gone so far beyond that by truly taking it to the next level.


Like what?

Cargo containers, hay, small buildings, small airplanes, helicopters, tow trucks, military vehicles, sculptures, farm equipment, construction equipment, RVs, cars, building materials, complete kitchens, company trucks…plus all of the stuff from above (flatbed hotshot loads, flatbed LTL, sheds, and oversized loads).

Inquire about the normal or the unique…

If you need something moved…

BICO Transportation will gladly do it, and for a better overall value.

BICO Helping Turn a Hobby into a Business


As Josh said, “He builds them, and we haul them”.

BICO Transportation founder Josh Fendell is speaking about hobby shed builder Steve Cummins (Instagram @2ndcummins).

We recently spoke with Steve about his sheds and what the future holds, and we would like to share some of that with you.

Steve Cummins does a lot, and one of the things that he does in his spare time, is that he builds sheds as a hobby. As people started to see his work, requests for other sheds started to come in.

Remember that this isn’t his main job, yet he was able to build four sheds last year, and he’s at four already this year.


Steve does do beautiful work, but what does the future hold?

For Steve Cummins, the future looks to be turning his hobby into a full-time business. He’s been on the hunt for a production shop, and has found a possible spot depending on how things work out.


What about his sheds?

Steve keeps his sheds to 200 sq. ft., yet they are very customizable.

He’s even working on fitting certain sheds with solar panels.


Steve may be a ways away from building you your next small house, but his sheds are a reality now, and he’s more than willing to build you one. What you do with it is up to you.

And the best part (in our opinion) is that BICOTransportation will be delivering it you.

Steve Cummins is a good guy, with a true talent, a bright future, and we are looking forward to see what he creates next.

Enjoying Life Every Day…the BICO Way

There is no secret to happiness, and the Fountain of Youth is a myth, but every life is precious and so we thank the Lord every day for our blessings.


This photo was snapped by our son a while back, but anyone who knows the Fendell’s, or has worked with BICO Transportation, knows that we enjoy life…that we live life to the fullest.

Happiness is easy if you’re in the right state of mind and are looking for it.
  • Does BICO have bad days? Yes.
  • Do our employees have bad days? Yes.
  • Do the Fendell’s (as a family unit and as individuals) have bad days? Yes.

 BUT…

That doesn’t ruin our overall happiness. Things do get better. Life is worth fighting for.

We believe that, and work hard every day to make each other’s lives (and our own) that much better. Better doesn’t mean money. Happiness doesn’t mean money.

When we pick up, deliver, and haul something for a customer, it is a time to rejoice because that customer brought us into their lives. In return, we brought them into the BICO family.

  • We could do our job and go home (the other guys).
  • We could do our job well and go home (higher end other guys).
  • We could do our job well, make a positive impact on the people we meet, enrich our lives, and then go home (BICO Transportation).


Happiness, good natured, friendliness, understanding, hardworking, family centric, loving life, and having the ability to love our fellow man are part of who we are. We don’t fake it. It’s not hard for us. It really is part of who we are.

Happiness is in our DNA (right next to the funny bone).


Question

Let’s say that you have stressful transportation issue. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if you could call a shipper to take care of it, and you wouldn’t have to worry about it any longer; plus the interaction made you feel better?

Answer

BICO Transportation. When we take on a job, those items are treated as our own. You become part of the BICO family; and we guarantee that you’ll always get us on a good day, because every day is a good day.


We know that life can be hard, but loving life is easy.


Ship with a company that you trust. Ship with BICOTransportation.

Looking to Retire


The Szarek’s are looking to retire in a few years, and so they are making that dream a reality now.

They have the land, and now they have the cabin.

One of the perks of their retirement is living in a smaller space. Small houses are all the rage these days, but this couple is doing it right. They are working hard to transform the cabin (inside and out) and the land now, so they can take it easy later.

And because of BICO Transportation…their cabin is sitting in the ideal picturesque location.


So we asked Mrs. Szarek for feedback, and it was so overwhelmingly positive that you’ll swear that Josh interviewed himself (he likes himself a lot).

She said so many great things…

Here are some of them (we had to stop listing them because we were blushing…not really…we loved it)…

According to Mrs. SzarekJosh is
  • Absolutely incredible
  • Professional
  • Confident
  • Helpful
  • Really good at what he does
  • Best delivery guy ever

In fact…

The Szarek’s were so impressed with Josh and BICOTransportation that they told other people, and those other people are seriously interested in using BICO’s services. We are blessed!!!


From our point of view…

Meeting the Szarek’s was a true blessing. Their story is amazing, and their lives are beyond words. To hear them talk about our founder and our company in such an over-the-top positive way makes us grateful that we are still doing this for the right reasons.

The Szarek family will be in our hearts and prayers for years to come, and they will always be part of the BICO family.


To our entire BICO family

Thank you for trusting us, and allowing us to be a part of your lives. We’ll continuing going strong for as long as you need us.


From the Fendell family to you

God bless and happy trails!!!!

Down Home Folks Working Side-by-Side

Smitty’s Pilot Car & Hot Shot service has been partnering with BICO Transportation for a long time now, and the partnership is mutual.

Smitty’s Pilot Car & Hot Shot is owned and operated by Ron and Penny Smith, and if we could describe Ron in one word…

That word would be…“stubborn”…

That is a good thing…in fact…that is a great thing.

When BICO (or any truck) is hauling a wide load down the freeway, they need a pilot car driver who puts that truck first.

Ron is that pilot car driver. He’ll block traffic. He’ll stop in the middle of the road if he has to.

The relationship is built off of trust, friendship, and a communication that just works.

We trust Smitty’s Pilot Car & Hot Shot with our livelihood and our lives.



This photo sums up the BICO / Smitty’s Pilot Car relationship, and to quote Josh on the photo…

You are about to receive a glimpse into exclusive meeting between BICO Transportation and Smitty's Pilot Car service. We are in very serious discussions right now as we speak on whether or not to get the French toast or the pancakes!

Do we need to say more?
