OnTrac officially expands into Texas


Vienna, Va.-based e-commerce parcel carrier OnTrac recently announced it has formally expanded into Texas.

This follows its Texas-based expansion plan, which was rolled out in August 2022, with a focus on what it called the “fast-growing megaregion of Austin, Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, and San Antonio, with the Dallas-Fort Worth facility to function as the major Texas-based sort hub, reaching 19 million new consumers through faster residential e-commerce delivery services.

OnTrac said that this expansion brings its U.S.-based delivery coverage to 80% of the country, representing 31 states and Washington, D.C.

What’s more, it added that the Dallas-Fort Worth branch, which is located at 802 East Centre Park Blvd., will operate as OnTrac’s major Texas sort hub and facilitate millions of deliveries to 7.6 million residents throughout the area, while also providing easy access to the I-35 and I-20 corridors. 

OnTrac said that the facility will serve as the primary injection point for the state, providing next-day delivery services across the Dallas-Fort Worth, Austin, Houston, and San Antonio markets. As for staffing, OnTrac added it is also creating hundreds of full- and part-time jobs to help meet local delivery demand, and spur economic growth within the regions.

“We expanded into Texas based on overwhelming feedback from our customers, both omnichannel retailers and direct-to-consumer brands, who committed volume ahead of the launch,” said Josh Dinneen, Chief Commercial Officer of OnTrac, in a statement. “Our Texas expansion is a win-win situation for retailers and their customers. Retailers can leverage our delivery network to acquire customers and build brand loyalty with faster home delivery, lower their costs, and increase flexibility, while consumers get their items delivered faster. We are thrilled to expand into the Lone Star State. We look forward to welcoming more employees to the OnTrac team and growing our involvement within the local communities.”
