Description: Founded in 1888 with a team of horse-drawn hauling wagons, Matlack Inc. was based in Wilmington, Delaware. Matlack would grow to become the largest tanker line in America, becoming known as the "Pipeline on Wheels." From petroleum and chemicals, to dry bulk, and food grade product, Matlack Inc. had the specialized tanker trailers and terminal network to help get it where it needed to be. Sadly, after more than a century of doing business, the Pipeline on Wheels went into bankruptcy and was bought up and sold off in 2001.
