Ryder System Inc. Expands Presence in the Southeast with New Facility

On December 4, 2025, Ryder System, Inc. (NYSE: R) announced the opening of a new 20,000 square feet full-service commercial truck rental and maintenance facility in McDonough, Georgia. This strategic expansion is designed to enhance access to fleet and maintenance services for regional businesses, situated in South Atlanta's rapidly growing logistics corridor.

Located at 105 Constitution Drive, the McDonough facility is well-positioned near I-75 and major distribution hubs. This setup will bolster Ryder's port-to-door logistics service model, providing rental, maintenance, and fleet solutions. This expansion follows Ryder's recent growth in the Nashville area and is part of a broader strategy to address the rising demand in high-growth regions.

Tom Havens, President of Fleet Management Solutions at Ryder, stated, “This expansion reflects Ryder’s investment in high-growth regions where evolving logistics needs demand flexible and tech-enabled solutions. McDonough’s proximity to Atlanta, strong infrastructure, and thriving industrial base make it an ideal location for extending our service footprint.”

McDonough, located in Henry County, is emerging as a key inland port destination, thanks to its strategic position along I-75, which connects businesses to the Atlanta metro market and beyond. Recent infrastructure developments allow containers to be offloaded directly onto trucks, streamlining freight movement and alleviating highway congestion.

This growth aligns with the Port of Savannah's record-setting expansion, which has been recognized as the fastest-growing port on the U.S. East Coast. According to the Georgia Center of Innovation, Georgia’s logistics sector currently employs over 250,000 people and generates more than $83 billion in annual economic impact. The ongoing investment in McDonough's industrial parks and distribution centers continues to fuel demand for fleet management and transportation services, making it an ideal location for Ryder's expansion.

Ryder's new facility is expected to create numerous employment opportunities in the McDonough area, including positions for skilled technicians and customer service professionals. Interested candidates can find more information about job openings at Ryder's official careers page.
