Ee-Jay Motor Transports, Inc. was founded by E. J. Dougherty in 1953. In 1957 Ee-Jay built and operated a liquid petroleum wax storage and blending facility that was designed by Socony-Mobil Oil Corp, Customers included Mobil, Sun Oil Col, Gulf and a number of brokers.
While most of the wax was destined to dairies via Ee-Jay Truck and used to coat the cardboard milk carton, Much of the wax was blended and packaged in fiber drums for shipment to a wide variety of end users from candle makers to tri nitro toluene (TNT) Dynamite stick manufacturers.
Interestingly, Ee-Jay delivers plastic pellets for the molding of milk bottles today to the same dairies it delivered liquid petroleum wax to nearly 50 years earlier. Ee-Jay offers transloading, delivery, warehousing and packaging to customers across the US and Canada.
