Schumacher Trucking

Schumacher Trucking provides livestock transport services out of Timber Lake, South Dakota, serving ranchers and producers throughout the north-central part of the state near Pierre. Run by John and Nina Schumacher, the operation moves horses, cattle, sheep, goats, chickens, and pigs for farm-to-farm sales, herd relocations, breeding programs, and trips to sale barns or processing facilities.

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

Given the wide mix of species handled, Schumacher Trucking works with everyone from small backyard flock owners to larger cattle and sheep operations needing dependable hauling across the region. Their experience with different animal types means loading, spacing, and ventilation needs are handled according to what each species requires, whether it's a single horse headed to a new pasture or a full trailer of hogs bound for market.
