Saia, Inc. (NASDAQ: SAIA) announced today that Saia LTL Freight
will open a terminal this Monday in Newburgh, New York, just south
of Poughkeepsie. As part of the New York City metropolitan area,
the new facility will provide Saia customers full coverage of the
Hudson Valley and act as the carrier’s second breakbulk terminal in
the region, offering accelerated service into and out of the
Northeast.
"Providing our customers with industry-leading service remains
our top priority,” said Saia Executive Vice President of Operations
Paul Peck. “Our Newburgh terminal is just the latest example of
this commitment. Again, our operations, sales and management teams
have worked to ensure this new facility is staffed and ready to
meet shipper demand starting Monday.”
With the opening of the Newburgh facility, Saia added several
new team members, including management, office, sales, and
operational personnel such as drivers and dockworkers. The terminal
is still hiring for several positions. Interested candidates can

Island and Connecticut, opened March 11 in Wrentham, Massachusetts.
Additional terminals in the Northeast are scheduled to open
throughout the year along with continued investments in existing
Saia facilities.
“We are extremely enthusiastic about our strategy of adding
terminals in both the Northeast and in existing markets as we work
to get closer to customers with the ultimate goal of providing even
better service,” stated Peck.
