About Lane Caughron

I’m Lane, a full-time business student, full-time logistics salesman who\'s driven to make things happen. I move freight with grit, hustle, and zero excuses, so my customers can focus on running and growing their business.Balancing school at Chattanooga State with a career at Steam Logistics isn’t something I “make work”, it’s what fuels me. It’s sharpened my problem-solving skills, strengthened my persistence, and taught me how to deliver results no matter what’s on my plate.I come from a blue-collar background, so for me, success isn’t about titles or paychecks. It’s about doing the work, earning respect, and building relationships that last. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your business like it’s their own, you’re in the right place.
