Ace Doran

ABOUT ACE DORAN

Ace Doran is a trusted transportation and logistics company with over 100 years of experience. Our story began in early 1900s Cincinnati, Ohio, when John Doran hauled ice and coal by horse-drawn carriage. That dedication to reliability and hard work laid the foundation for the company that officially became Ace Doran Hauling & Rigging in 1941. 

From a small local operation, Ace Doran grew into a leading flatbed, heavy haul, and specialized transportation provider, serving customers across the United States and Canada. Our network includes experienced owner-operators, company drivers, and experienced agents, all working together to handle project cargo, wind energy components, and steel freight — supported by decades of service to steel mills and processors — along with other complex shipments for industries that keep North America moving. 

In 2013, Ace Doran joined the Bennett Family of Companies, expanding our capabilities with Bennett’s global logistics network while maintaining our commitment to service, safety, and efficiency. 

From horse-drawn beginnings to modern, specialized freight solutions, Ace Doran continues to evolve with the industry, delivering innovative solutions and building the future of transportation and logistics across North America.
