A Little About Cherryville
Cherryville grew up around the railroad and the trucking business — Carolina Freight was headquartered here for decades, and the town still runs the New Year's Shooters tradition that dates back generations. It is a small town surrounded by working land, which is most of what we do.
Why that matters on a job site
Being based here means we can look at a job the same week you call, and it means we already know which parcels off Highway 274 sit on rock and which ones drain badly.
