September – Powersource builds and moves to 6480 Ameriplex Drive, Portage, IN. This was Barb ‘s dream to insure the safety of the drivers spending time at the main office. The driver’s lounge has access 24-7 where they may shower, do their laundry, watch tv and relax. They have access to the company van also. Coming from design/construction fields, this was an exciting venture for Barb.

What makes Powersource one of the most driver friendly trucking companies in the industry?
It’s simple: we were founded by a truck driver.
“We recognize that each shipment entrusted to us has its own special requirements. Because of this, we never take anything for granted.”
– Skip Bakos, Founder
Just as Skip would have wanted, we are Powersource…at your service.
