Le Mars is the Ice Cream Capital of the World, home to the Wells Enterprises (Blue Bunny) plant, which is the largest family-owned ice cream manufacturer in the United States. The Wells plant drives daily reefer outbound to all 50 states, making Le Mars a reefer-freight pivot point. The town is served by US-75 north-south and IA-3 east-west, with I-29 (15 miles west) carrying the long-haul flow.
Le Mars is a city and the county seat of Plymouth County, Iowa, United States. It is located on the Floyd River northeast of Sioux City. The population was 10,571 at the time of the 2020 census. Le Mars is located within America Township and is part of the Sioux City metropolitan area.
Le Mars's freight rhythm is dominated by Wells Enterprises reefer outbound: ice cream trailers loaded at the plant, dispatched across the country at -20F set-points. Our reefer-trained techs are the backbone of our Plymouth County dispatch mix, with Carrier and ThermoKing diagnostic stock on every service truck.
Year-round Wells reefer volume plus the I-29 long-haul flow at the Le Mars Industrial Park drive 24/7 dispatch demand. Our network handles plant-gate pre-trip work, TRU diagnosis, trailer hub-bearing service, and air-system repair as routine.
Whether you are a Wells reefer driver with a TRU set-point alarm, a Sioux City metro long-haul rig diverting through US-75 for fuel, or an ag-hauler at the Le Mars Co-op, the closest insurance-current rescuer is one call away. Our 24/7 dispatch handles ETA, billing, and tech hand-off.
