Pegasus TransTech announced that three more independent truckstop/travel centers have signed up to offer Transflo Express truckstop scanning for their trucking customers. White’s Travel Center in Raphine and Lee Hi Travel Plaza in Lexington both are located off Interstate 81 in central Virginia. The Golden Acorn Casino & Travel Center is sited just off I-8 in Campo, Calif.

“A lot more people use Transflo Express, and a lot of people ask for it,” says Bob Moore, fuel coordinator at White’s Travel Center. “It will be advantageous to us as well. Many of the big fleets use Transflo Express.”

With Transflo Express, drivers hand their documents to a cashier for scanning. In seconds, these documents are sent electronically to the fleet for immediate billing and payroll processing. Because Transflo Express expedites document delivery, fleets and drivers get paid faster.

“We welcome White’s, Lee Hi and the Golden Acorn to the growing network of truckstops that offer Transflo Express,” says Bob Helms, chairman and chief executive officer of Pegasus TransTech. “All three provide essential services for truckers along major interstate routes. We’re very pleased that Transflo Express is now one of those essential services.”

White’s Travel Center features a motel, a CB shop, sit-down restaurants and a Burger King. Lee Hi offers Berky’s restaurant, a convenience store and more. The Golden Acorn Casino & Travel Center, roughly 50 miles east of San Diego, offers full truckstop services and is the only casino/truckstop in San Diego County.

Transflo Express is offered at more than 560 locations, including all Pilot and Love’s Travel Centers and many independent truckstop locations.
