City Profile

Des Plaines IL Trucking & Freight Industry Overview

Des Plaines sits where I-294, I-90, and I-190 meet, which is why most breakdown calls here come off a highway rather than a side street. A truck stopped on one of those is a traffic problem before it is a repair problem, so the first thing our dispatcher asks is which road you are on and which way you are pointed.

Des Plaines is a city in Cook County, Illinois, United States. Per the 2020 census, the population was 60,675. The city is a suburb of Chicago and is located just north of O'Hare International Airport. It is situated on and is named after the Des Plaines River, which runs through the city just east of its downtown area.

The trucks that cover Des Plaines also run Rosemont, Mount Prospect, Park Ridge, and Chicago, out to about 36 miles at Joliet. So a call from the edge of Cook County reaches the same people as one from the middle of town, and you are not handed off to a different dispatcher because of a county line.
