About Us
Railroad Distribution Services (RDS) is a wholly owned subsidiary of Pinsly Railroad Company and functions as a full-service warehouse, reload, and distribution center. RDS has been in the reloading and transloading business since 1985, first in Western Massachusetts, then expanding into Central Florida in 1988 and into two Arkansas locations in 1993. Each RDS facility is served by one of the Pinsly Railroads, delivering high-quality rail service.
Each location has the ability to load or unload center beam A-frames, bulkhead flatcars, boxcars, hopper cars, and flatbed or van trailers. The facilities are fenced and lighted. All staff and equipment operators are experienced in the warehousing and distribution of dimension lumber, wallboard, plywood, OSB, and various other panel products, dry bulk materials, palletized products, and other specialized products. RDS offers fully computerized inventory control, customized reports, balancing, picking and sorting, as well as customer service support and logistics.
In addition to managing all storage and inventory requirements, RDS also provides flatbed trucking services to complete the reload program for our customers.
All RDS facilities strive to provide cost-effective, efficient service and on-time deliveries, and to maintain uncompromising integrity in our business relationship with our customers. RDS has been honored to receive Lowe's Companies' highest award - Lowe's Gold Team award - for three consecutive years based on our reliable service record.
