Mehlhaf Farms

Mehlhaf Farms provides livestock transport services out of Parkston, South Dakota, serving the broader southeastern region near Mitchell. Led by Brian Mehlhaf, the operation moves horses, cattle, sheep, goats, chickens, and pigs for farms and ranches across the area, offering a hands-on approach shaped by years of working directly with livestock.

The company holds an active USDOT registration as a registered motor carrier.

Mehlhaf Farms works with producers who need reliable hauling for everyday farm needs, whether that means shifting cattle between pastures, delivering new breeding stock, or getting animals to sale barns and processing facilities on schedule. Because the team handles a wide range of species, from poultry to hogs to horses, they're often called on by mixed operations that need one contact for multiple types of loads. Local farmers and smaller breeders in particular tend to appreciate a transporter who understands the rhythms of regional agriculture and can adapt to tighter timelines or unusual routes when the situation calls for it.
