ATHENS, TEXAS (September 1, 2021) – RoadMasters is happy and sad to announce the retirement of long-time associate and industry professional, Jeff Bobbitt, effective September 1, 2021. Jeff and Heidi Bobbitt have been a part of the RoadMasters family for 15 years. Originally from Oregon, Jeff has lived in Idaho since 1975. His family has been in the trucking industry for three generations, starting with his Grandfather, who drove a hard-tired logging truck.
Jeff has been in the manufactured housing/modular industry for 44 years. He began installing mobile homes with his Dad in 1977 and started transporting in 1980. Through the industry cycles, Jeff primarily focused on transporting manufactured homes and commercial buildings, but also hauled flatbed freight, fuel and propane, and timber.
In 2004 Jeff joined the Phoenix RoadMasters terminal as an Owner/Operator. In 2006, he and Heidi started a RoadMasters terminal based in Post Falls, ID where Jeff operated a truck for much of Heidi’s tenure. Jeff also launched and managed a successful commercial modular installation business and completed many projects on the West Coast, earning the status of “preferred” contractor on the strict and rigorous Hanford Nuclear site in Washington.
In 2018, Jeff joined the RoadMasters management team. His efforts included West Coast sales, support, and operations. He was the driving force in launching the RoadMasters Modular division that specifically supported the structural volumetric modular “off-frame” modular market. Jeff’s expertise and knowledge proved instrumental in acquiring extendable step-deck “mod” carriers and assembling the operators, team, and capabilities to fulfill large projects.
RoadMasters is honored and proud to have had Jeff on the team. He is a true professional, unwavering in business ethic, and focused on providing value to customers and teammates alike. Although we’re sad that Jeff is retiring, we’re happy for him and jealous that he will be pursuing hunting, fishing, etching silver, and most importantly, time with Heidi.
Please join us in wishing Jeff the best!
