Temple, TX.
Temple is a Central Texas distribution powerhouse, sitting squarely on I-35 between Dallas and Austin with a major BNSF rail yard and one of the region's densest concentrations of distribution centers. McLane Company is headquartered here, and the city's industrial parks pull in big-box DCs drawn to the highway-rail crossroads. Trucks feeding those warehouses run I-35 and US-190 day and night.

Temple TX Trucking & Freight Industry Overview
Temple is a Central Texas distribution powerhouse, sitting squarely on I-35 between Dallas and Austin with a major BNSF rail yard and one of the region's densest concentrations of distribution centers. McLane Company is headquartered here, and the city's industrial parks pull in big-box DCs drawn to the highway-rail crossroads. Trucks feeding those warehouses run I-35 and US-190 day and night.
Temple is a city in Bell County, Texas, United States. As of 2020, the city has a population of 82,073 according to the U.S. census. Temple lies in the region referred to as Central Texas and is a principal city in the Killeen–Temple–Fort Hood metropolitan area, which as of the 2020 Census had a population of 475,367. Located off Interstate 35, Temple is 65 miles (105 km) north of Austin, 34 miles (55 km) south of Waco and 27 miles east of Killeen.
Temple's location at the intersection of I-35, US-190, and a major BNSF rail yard makes it one of Central Texas's busiest distribution hubs, the kind of place where a stalled rig in a DC dock or on the interstate ripples through a dozen delivery schedules. Road Rescue Network's Temple rescuers work the warehouse corridors and the I-35 ramps every day. When a tractor-trailer goes down feeding the McLane or Niagara DCs, our dispatch times beat the regional benchmark.
Anyone who's dispatched a truck through Temple in July knows the Central Texas heat doesn't quit, triple-digit afternoons that bake tires on the I-35 pavement and push cooling systems past the edge under a loaded trailer. Tire blowouts and overheats are daily summer calls along the interstate here. Our local mechanics keep coolant, hose kits, and a range of commercial tire sizes on every service truck because a hot day on I-35 turns small problems into roadside breakdowns fast.
Whether you're a fleet manager dispatching from Dallas with a truck stranded at a Temple distribution center or an owner-operator on US-190 headed for Killeen, the nearest verified, insurance-current rescuer in our Temple network is one phone call away. Road Rescue Network's 24/7 operations team handles dispatch, ETA confirmation, and coordination so downtime stays short.
