City Profile

Wheeling IL Trucking & Freight Industry Overview

Wheeling sits where I-94, I-294, and US-45 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.

Wheeling is a village in Cook and Lake counties in the U.S. state of Illinois. It is part of Wheeling and Vernon townships. Wheeling is a suburb of Chicago, it is primarily in Cook County, approximately 23 miles (37 km) northwest of downtown Chicago. The population was 39,137 at the 2020 census. Wheeling is named after Wheeling, West Virginia.

The trucks that cover Wheeling also run Buffalo Grove, Prospect Heights, Riverwoods, and Chicago, out to about 43 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.
