Transportation

We are a customer friendly company, with a “safety first” motto. Our seasoned drivers are exceptional and knowledgeable. We haul gasoline, diesel and ethanol, with pumps available for above ground tanks as well as pump outs.

 

We are an IFTA licensed carrier, and have expanded our reach beyond Georgia to include Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Illinois and Ohio.

Our carrier division, Smith-Bell Systems, was created in December 2012 primarily to service Smith-Bell Petroleum’s family of stations but now also services other companies as well. We are based in Gainesville, Georgia, easily accessible to the Doraville and Athens fuel terminals, as well as several ethanol plants.

 

Please consider Smith-Bell Systems as your next fuel carrier for any local or long haul needs. For more information, please contact Amy Dooley at 770.532.8661, ext. 21 or email Amy.

It’s often said that being treated like family is the ultimate sign of respect. Leslie learned firsthand from her father, John Nivens, about the importance of taking care of people. She has grown up in the Smith-Bell family, literally and figuratively, with a deep passion for the company’s tradition.

After receiving her Bachelor of Science in Psychology from the University of Georgia, she began her career in the petroleum industry. For six years she served as the Brand Coordinator for Smith-Bell before going to work at a local non-profit.
