SAFEWAY DRIVE AWAY, INC.
SAFEWAY DRIVE AWAY, INC. operates out of RICHMOND, IN and holds carrier authority. It owns the equipment and its own driver collects your vehicle. A mid-sized fleet. This is the size that reliably runs fixed lanes week to week rather than chasing whatever load is nearest. It is the only auto transport company registered in RICHMOND, so a local pickup here is usually arranged rather than dispatched from down the road.
From the company’s own FMCSA census filing, last updated May 2026.
SAFEWAY DRIVE AWAY, INC. has held operating authority since 1993 — 33 years, which puts it among the oldest registrations in the trade and well past the point where most entrants have folded. It reports 19 power units and 22 drivers — a one-to-one roster, the ordinary shape of a small fleet. The fleet reported 2,728,018 miles in 2025, about 143,580 per truck — hard long-haul use.
