A Family affair
Scherer & Sons
As Gene's company grew, so did his family, having five children - three daughters and two sons. The boys, Mike and Chuck, became very interested in the trucking business and at a young age they worked side by side with their dad.
Close the Deal
They became so involved in the company that on June 8, 1983, Mike, along with his wife Ann, and Chuck, with his wife Ann, bought the business. They kept the name Gene Scherer and Sons Trucking, Inc. Bill Scherer, Chuck's son, became manager in the dispatch office in 2008, after ten years with the company. As of July 1st 2022 Bill Scherer is now the President and owner of Scherer Trucking.
Always Moving Forward
Over the years, business has continued to grow. Mike & Chuck take the same pride in their company as Gene, keeping the equipment well maintained and going the extra mile to make sure every customer is fully satisfied. It is very important to make sure scheduled deliveries are always on time. Scherer Trucking has continued to be a trusted & reliable company that will always be family oriented.
