The year was 1985 and together, with his father Bill Stevenson, they created Custom Commodities Transport.

Specializing in dry bulk, plastics, liquid food grade, and hazmat products, Custom is a carrier of choice for Fortune 500 petrochemical companies across the Southeastern U.S. After working many years in the family feed and fertilize business, current CEO and President David L Stevenson had a desire to get in the transportation business.

Stephen Dunn: experience, new truck, will retire here! 06/16/2026

When a Professional Driver with 30 years of experience says he wants to retire from Custom Transport, we do not take that lightly.
Stephen Dunn has spent his career doing the work the right way. He comes from three generations of Professional Drivers, and he has spent many years hauling plastics in pneumatic tankers with the kind of safety record and customer service reputation that earn real respect.
Drivers like Stephen remind us what this industry is built on:

πŸš› Experience
πŸ›‘οΈ Safety
🀝 Customer service
πŸ‘¨β€πŸ‘©β€πŸ‘§β€πŸ‘¦ Family tradition
⭐ Professional pride
🏁 Finishing strong

At Custom Transport, we want this to be more than just another driving job.

βœ… We want our Drivers to know the people who support them.
βœ… We want honest relationships between Drivers, Dispatch, Safety, Operations, and Leadership.
βœ… We want our Drivers to feel like they are part of a Team that knows their name, respects their work, and understands that life outside the truck matters too.
As David Lee says, β€œWe want this to be your last job.”
Stephen’s story is a strong example of what that means:

πŸš› A career Professional Driver
πŸ‘¨β€πŸ‘¦ A proud family tradition
πŸ›‘οΈ A superior safety record
🀝 Unmatched customer service
🏁 A desire to finish his driving career with Custom

Thank you, Stephen, for the work you do, the standard you represent, and the example you set.

The tank truck industry lost one of its most influential leaders this last weekend.

John D. Groendyke helped build one of the most respected carriers in North America and spent decades advancing safety and excellence across our industry. He also served as Chairman of the National Tank Truck Carriers and was recognized with the NTTC Lifetime Achievement Award in 2024.

While companies may compete in the marketplace, we all benefit from leaders who raise the standard for everyone.

On behalf of our Team at Custom Transport, we extend our condolences to the Groendyke family, the Groendyke Transport Team, and all those whose lives and careers were impacted by his leadership.

May he rest in peace.
