Our central location in Topeka and Hiawatha, KS, means that we can get anywhere – fast.

You will save money using Fairview Express, because we can handle your products all the way from the pet food ingredient transloading stage to delivering the product on your customer’s doorstep. With our pneumatics and hoppers, you have flexibility in bulk shipping. You can also choose to handle and ship your pet food ingredients in individual bags and totes – we have the equipment to handle it!

We have the equipment to handle your specialized needs! Whether it’s our pneumatics, tankers, hoppers, flatbeds, van trailers, belt wagons, or auger tanks. We will pick up and deliver your products in a timely and cost-efficient manner.

We also offer flexibility with bulk shipping by utilizing pneumatics and hoppers; this includes the option of handling and shipping in individual bags and totes.

Pneumatics + Tankers

For pet food ingredient distribution of bulk powders and fine grain meals, pneumatic-style and tanker-style trucks are the best solution. These types of pet food ingredients are finer and harder to flow than coarser grain meals, whole raw materials, or unbagged extruded pet food. Pneumatics and tankers are also great options for transloading purposes, where we move your product from railcar to bulk storage and back.
Hoppers

Hopper-style trailers are the best fit for transporting coarse grain meals, whole raw materials, and unbagged extruded pet foods (also known as complete diets). These larger grain products flow easier through the hopper openings at the bottom.
Flatbeds + Van Trailers

If you’re dealing with bagged products, whether they be super sacks or pallets of smaller capacity bags, we can transport them for you using both our flatbed trailers and van trailers. These trailer options are preferred in our industrial product division, specifically with corn cob products.

A Central Location

For Pet Food Ingredient Distribution

In choosing Fairview Express, a division of J-Six Enterprises, for your pet food ingredient distribution needs, you not only have a variety of vehicles to handle your specialized needs – you also are guaranteed fast national transit! Our central locations in Topeka and Hiawatha, KS give us short travel times all across the contiguous United States. A distribution company located on either coast would have long transit times to your customers on the opposite coast. By being centrally located, Fairview Express can quickly get your pet food ingredients to your customers, wherever they may be.

An Elite Team of Drivers

You can rest assured that Fairview Express operates with an elite team of licensed drivers, each specialized for the specific needs of the trailer. Our drivers all work closely with one another to ensure a smooth distribution process. It’s beneficial for them, as well as for you!

If you’re a freight driver looking to join a smooth-running team, consider joining Fairview Express! We offer opportunities for further licensing, a competitive salary and benefits package, and our central location means that no transport run is unreasonably far.

Can Haul It All

At Fairview Mills, we don’t handle just raw materials, or just bulk pet food ingredients, or just pallets of packaged products – we do it all! We have the equipment necessary to handle any type of pet food ingredient distribution.

Bulk Loose Pet Food Ingredients And Products

Fairview Express would gladly move, store, and transload your bulk pet food ingredients. Our pneumatics, tankers, auger wagons, and hoppers mean that you aren’t limited to transporting ingredients only after they’ve been bagged. We can handle your bulk loose pet food ingredients through all stages of the pet food production process:

Transloading

Fairview Express, a division of J-Six Enterprises, will both move your product from one place to another and take care of the transloading process. We handle all transloading processes between railcar, warehouse, and truck trailer.
Pet Food Ingredient Bulk Storage

After we use our array of trucks and trailers to move your pet food ingredients from a railcar, we can then store it for you. We offer both short-term and long-term storage agreements, using our open-bin warehouse system and moisture-controlled silos.
Pet Food Grinding + Pet Food Milling

Fairview Mills would be happy to turn your bulk pet food ingredients into usable products for blending into pet food products! Through our hammer mills and sifting belts, we can turn any raw product until a medium to fine grain meal, ready for blending.

Bagged Pet Food

Ingredients And Products

These bags are available in multiple configurations of construction material and sealing methods. Our fifty pound bags are intended as ingredient packaging, not finished product packaging. Pet food ingredient packaging is useful for ease of transport and storage.
