Rittgers Trucking

Rittgers Trucking provides livestock transport services from Paton, Iowa, serving central Iowa and the greater Des Moines area. The company moves horses, cattle, sheep, goats, chickens, and pigs for farms and producers who need dependable hauling between properties, sale barns, and processing facilities.

Rittgers Trucking holds an active USDOT registration as a registered motor carrier.

Many clients rely on this kind of hauling for seasonal herd moves, flock relocations, or getting animals to auction on time. Breeders and small farm operators alike use transport services like this when adding new stock, consolidating herds, or shifting animals between grazing sites as pasture conditions change throughout the year. Having a carrier familiar with mixed species work, from goats to hogs to full cattle loads, can simplify logistics for operations that raise more than one type of livestock. For producers across the region, that flexibility often matters as much as the drive itself.
