Baton Rouge, LA

Highway Transport’s Baton Rouge Service Center is located just outside of the city in Geismar, Louisiana. Major chemical companies ask us to extend our capacity throughout the southeastern corridor of the U.S., where many chemical manufacturers are expanding their facilities. To fulfill those needs, this 25-acre facility serves as Highway’s “flagship” location for longhaul and regional loads. It includes a six-bay maintenance shop, four-bay tank wash, two stories with excellent driver facilities (including a theatre-type break room), training center for our Gulf Coast—area drivers, many offices, and a conference room.
