About:
Arka Express has evolved from a small 35-unit carrier located out of Markham, IL, to an elite, state-of-the-art fleet of 400 units built by the top transportation professionals in the industry in only 10 years.
In addition to our Markham terminal, they are currently establishing headquarters in Indiana, Atlanta, Georgia and Marlboro Township, New Jersey as they continue to deliver services throughout the Midwest, east coast and Southeast. Drivers typically operate in a 400-mile regional radius in both Chicago and Atlanta. In addition, they have developed an OTR presence from the Dakotas to Florida to New York—and everything in between.
