DENNIS AND DANNY HOLLISTER POSE in front of one of their chip trucks with a custom “Hollister decal to replace the Kenworth decal. “It justlooks different and you wouldn’t notice it unless you look at it,” they said. Both Dennis and Danny began driving with their dad Don in 1983 andtook over the company in the 1990s. Don passed away in 2006 but they keep his name on the road as one of their companies is Don R. HollisterTrucking. Danny steps into the driver seat when one of the trucks is in need of a driver while Dennis runs the phone and a lot of the dispatch-ing. They both can usually be found at the Hollister Trucking shop in Ridgefield, Wash.

ZACK HOLLISTER puts wrappers on his load while hauling off a NorthFork Timber jobsite near Centralia, Wash. Hollister has been hauling forhis family’s company for two years. “The worst part is probably justkeeping things clean,” Hollister said. Zach handles his own dispatchingfor his 2014 Peterbilt 389 rolling and making money for the company.
fiber Mill in Morton, Wash. Thecompanies have 22 trucks in to-tal, including two log trucks andthree trucks that haul steel.
“it feels pretty good seeingthose trucks roll down the roadwhen they’re cleaned up andlooking good,” dennis said.
The brothers consider them-selves lucky to have lots of long-term employees, with thelongest tenured driver, rodPoisel, having been with thecompany for 25 years and mostof the employees having at least10-15 years working for Hollis-ter under their belt.
“We preach that familycomes first and if they need totake time to go take care of fam-ily, we want them to,” dannysaid.
Hollister’s trucks are spreadfrom nampa, idaho to Chehalis,Wash. to down near their shopin ridgefield. The companieswork with a multitude of cus-tomers and make the point ofgood loyalty and service.
They’ve worked for rsg for-est Products for 25 years, Kap-stone, Hermann Bros in PortAngeles and nAP steel.
“We stick with people anddon’t move next door for the ex-tra dollar because it isn’t worthit in the long run,” danny said.“They can depend on us andwhen they hire one of ourtrucks, that truck goes to workfor them.”
And it all started with donHollister, whose picture hangsup on the wall in the ridgefieldshop.
Starting With donWhile his dad roy worked
hauling for Weyerhaeuser, donwas able to sneak into a drivingjob for the company at the ten-der age of 16. He lived in a Wey-erhauser camp part-time butsince you’re not supposed to beable to drive until age 21, theyeventually found out his realage and let him go.
The logging truck bug hadalready bitten him and he washooked. don turned his earlyexperience into working for sev-eral local outfits. Then in 1965,don became a driver for JoeZumstein logging and hauledfor him for five years.
in 1970 he began don. r.Hollister Trucking with wife
delores and used a 1965 Ken-worth with a 335 Cummins en-gine but eventually ended upselling it in 1976 thinking hewould open up a body shop.
But he didn’t have the pa-tience for it and in 1977 he gotback in the driver’s seat of a1968 Kenworth and hauledmainly for Zumstein.

ZACK HOLLISTER TAKES OF THE WRAPPERS in Olympia. Hollisterhauled off a jobsite just outside of Centralia up to the port. Hollister
has naturally been around trucks and truck drivers all his life. “It’san honest living,” he said. He likes the change-up of log truck driv-ing and going to different landings as opposed to the monotonousnature of highway hauling. “You switch it up after just a month or a
few months, it’s not like you’re in the same place all the time,” hesaid. Hollister has been hauling for the family company for two
years and says that between him calling around for hauls and Hollis-ter Trucking’s contacts, his red 2014 Peterbilt 389 rarely sits.

DESPITE MUDDY CONDITIONS, Shane Holum’s 2007 Kenworth W900 is standing out on the Jon Greenup Logging landing in Northern Oregon.
bringing the boys on boardThe company expanded in
1983 when don brought his boysdanny and dennis into the fami-ly business.
“it kind of just gets in your
blood,” dennis said of log truck-
ing.
They began as eight-year-olds
washing trucks and when they
starting driving, don slowly but
surely turned the company over
to them.
“We’ve been invested in the
company and log trucking since
we were kids,” danny said.
don, danny and dennis each
drove trucks in 1983, and that
would eventually grow to eight
log trucks and in 1996 the com-
pany got into chip trucks.
“We had an opportunity with
a company in Vancouver, so we
bought one truck and then ended
up buying more,” danny said.
By 1998, the company had 10
trucks was running dump
trucks, log trucks and chip
trucks. dennis was running the
dump trucks while danny ran
the log and chip trucks. That
same year, danny moved into
the shop and began focusing
more on the shop maintenance
and keeping the trucks rolling.
Their primary customer by
that time was Oakville forest
Products that kept many of Hol-
lister’s trucks on the road.
in 2000, Hollister had five
lumber trucks, six log trucks and
five chip trucks.
big Changes
Hollister saw big growth in
2002 when they were able to buy
11 brand new chip trucks from
Oakville forest Products. Hollis-
ter also expanded their hauling
avenues to nAP steel.
nowadays, Hollister has three
trucks that haul heavy steel and
one of those trucks is based in
nampa, idaho driving all over
the gem state and into utah.
“That was eight years ago and
they’re very competent,” danny
said. “They treat us like gold.”
don Hollister passed away in
2006 and while danny and den-
nis has been managing the com-
pany for years, more changes
would happen at the company.
in 2006, Hollister bought 13
new Kenworths but that's when
the economic downturn began to
pinch. Oakville forest Products,
a company that Hollister did a
lot of hauling for, closed down.
“With Oakville shutting down
we had kind of all our eggs in
one basket,” danny said.
Then Bub Wilson, based out of
lyons, Oregon approached them
about his 9-acre fiber mill in
Morton, Wash. Wilson owned
several mills in Oregon and of-
fered a partnership.
“He helped us out of a hole
and that worked out really well,”
danny said. “We haul everything
out of there now.”
nW fiber now employs six
employees and Hollister’s chip
trucks continue to flow from
there.
“With your own mill you’re
able to create your own hauls,”
dennis said. “it definitely allows
you to be more flexible because
it’s constant, steady work for 4-5
of your trucks.”
At this point, Hollister had
converted exclusively to chip
trucks as the logging industry
went through a major slow
down.
back into Log trucks
Two years ago, danny’s son
Zack got into the family business
and began hauling logs. The
company got its first log truck in
several years - a 2014 Peterbilt
389 with a CAT 3460E engine.
“i enjoy the drive,” Zach said.
“i always have and it’s exciting
when you’re off-road.”
The company has since ex-
panded to two log trucks, with a
2007 Kenworth W900 driven by
shane Halum.
Zack Hollister hauls around
southwestern Washington, haul-
ing for companies like north
fork out of Centralia, Pls in
longview and steve Anderson.
Whatever keeps the wheels mov-
ing, he said, and the truck sit-
ting is a very rare occasion.
Zach began driving for a com-
pany based in ridgefield, TlC
Towing, before getting his Cdl
and moving into log truck driv-
ing.
shane has been driving com-
mercially for five years, begin-
ning with a tanker and then
hauling hay racks, dry vans and
freight. He also worked out in a
rigging crew for several years as
well.
“i’ve working in the log indus-
try for as long as i can remem-
ber,” shane said. “it’s always dif-
ferent, it’s never the same
scenery and you’re always a lit-
tle on edge.”
shane was a logger for several
years for OrM and great up in
Claskanine. He lives in Kelso,
Wash. now and his wife Kim also
drives dump truck.
Both Zach and shane do a lot
of dispatching themselves, find-
ing loggers with logs to haul or
companies that need something
moved.
“Hollister is great to work for,”
shane said. “They keep their
trucks in good condition and
keep them on a tight schedule
maintenance-wise.”

See “Hollister”
Chip off the Old block Chip trucks are still Hollis-
ter’s bread and butter, hauling
for nW fiber and several other
places. Chris Woolfe drives a
1999 W900 Kenworth for Hollis-
ter with a 53-foot chip trailer.
He’s been hauling commercially
since he was 19 and has been
driving full-time for seven years.
“i just like the freedom in my
truck and Hollister is an awe-
some family-friendly company,”
Chris said. “if something comes
up with my kids they under-
stand. i enjoy coming to work in
the morning instead of waking
up and dreading it.”
Chris also hauled steel for
nine years which comes in
handy when questions about
hauling steel come up for Hollis-
ter. dennis Hollister does the
dispatching for the chip trucks,
while danny handles any of the
steel hauling.
base of Operations in ridgefield
danny and dennis like being
in their company shop, which
was built by don in 1974 and
has serviced trucks ever since.
The two are rigorous with their
maintenance schedule, trying to
cycle through a truck every
week or two weeks.
“We try to keep our equip-
ment up to the best kind of
shape our ability allows,” danny
said. “dad said it best ‘fix it
right or don’t fix it at all.’”
dominick Cole is the head me-
chanic at the shop, running
around and getting things done
while avoiding the occasional
ribbing from danny and dennis.
“And if our drivers are going
the extra mile to take care of
them, we try and get them the
extras,” danny said. “good
drivers are so hard to come by so
we try to keep them.”
danny can step into the
driver's seat when needed, hit-
ting the road if a driver does
leave the company so the truck
keeps making money.
“i drive part time, dennis is
on the phone and we work in the
shop all the time,” danny said.
for all their truck needs, dsu
Peterbilt and Pape Kenworth
work with Hollister. dsu Peter-
bilt take care of all the motor-
work for Hollister’s trucks. The
company also has a dump truck
quick-change for rocks and chips
if needed. in all the company
has roughly 50 trailers for 22
trucks.
running the trucking office,
is danny and dennis’ sister
deAnn Montalvo who has been
doing the books since 1992 and
fulltime since 1998. danny’s
wife diann has been in the office
since 2009 after the addition of
the nW fiber mill in 2008.
“As long as the trucks are
rolling, i have work to do,”
deAnn, who has worked in three
versions of the office, said.
deAnn has moved from a small
office in the shop to one above
storage containers to the more
permanent office that’s an addi-
tion to the Hollister house.
delores Hollister is still the
heart of the companies after her
husband started everything
decades before. delores is the
owner of don. r Hollister Truck-
ing and is still very involved in
the company. delores used to do
all the bookwork, handwritten,
and was a parts runner. she al-
so worked as a “truck warmer”
waking up early with don to put
coffee on, make a hot breakfast,
pack his lunch and start the
truck in the morning to save her
husband some time.
One of her many abilities was
remembering any phone number
off the top of her head. so much
so she’s been refered to a “smart
Mom” since everyone saves
phone numbers in their smart
phones now.
And much like delores, the
boys and the company continue
to carry on and keep the wheels
on the road.
The goal of Hollister is to just
keep going from day-to-day.
“Each day brings a challenge,”
danny said. “if you claim to
know it all you should probably
quit.”
And with Hollister trucks on
the road since 1970, there’s no
quit in this company.

CAMP WOODLOT
The old camps consumed a lot of firewood intheir day, so most of the larger camps wouldsend in car loads of wood logs. in this photo,
such a load has arrived, has been off-loaded by ahandy railroad steam crane or loader, and set outfor the big drag saw to cut up by the old camp bullcooks. Bull cooks were usually older men who didcamp chores throughout the day while the loggingcrews were at work.
Also, a steam crane was a handy item to havearound to help out with camp chores, pick up strayor dumped logs along the tracks, load things oncamp moving day, and such. A larger camp or com-pany kept the steam crane pretty busy.
