Drake Farms

Drake Farms provides livestock transport services out of Blockton, Iowa, serving farms and ranches across the southwest Iowa region near Creston. James Eric Drake and the team haul horses, cattle, sheep, goats, chickens, and pigs, making runs that fit the rhythm of everyday farm work rather than treating each trip as a one-off job.

The company holds an active USDOT registration as a registered motor carrier. Beyond that credential, Drake Farms works with breeders moving stock to new pastures, small producers shifting flocks between grazing sites, and farms coordinating herd transfers ahead of sales or seasonal changes.

Because the operation covers such a wide range of species, it tends to appeal to mixed operations that need one dependable contact rather than juggling separate haulers for different animals. Whether it's a handful of goats or a full trailer of cattle, the focus stays on getting animals from one Iowa farm to the next safely and on schedule.
