About Flyers Energy:

 

Flyers Energy, LLC was formed in 1979 by four brothers: Tom, Walt, Steve, and David Dwelle. Their grandfather, Walter B. Allen, founded Beacon Oil Company in 1931, providing a legacy the Dwelle brothers would carry on with their purchase of seven gas stations in the greater Sacramento region. Naming the company Nella in honor of their grandfather (Allen spelled backwards), they have since created a forward-moving company with a strong, dynamic culture.

 

Flyers is headquartered in Auburn, California, and has regional offices and retail locations in several locations across California and Nevada. www.flyersenergy.com

Mike Doggett started his career in the trucking industry on his Father’s knee in the 1960's. As a young man he spent a countless amount of time riding "shotgun" with his Dad. They traveled throughout the Western United States, and spent a good deal of time trucking in Alaska. As a young man he, along with one of his older brothers had the opportunity to tackle the Trans-Alaska Pipeline System once called the "North Slope Haul Road" later made famous by the television show. For over a decade, he put his trucking knowledge to use in Hollywood as a transportation coordinator for motion picture and television productions throughout the United States in the late 1980’s.

 

Eventually, he had an opportunity to start his own trucking company in the late 1990's, and in 1999 MJ Tank Lines was formed. As a single truck operator, an enormous amount of time and effort went into growing a small trucking interest in Southern California into a regional carrier servicing customer needs from the Central California Coast and south to the San Diego area. Mike attributes the company’s success to all his very loyal and dedicated staff.

 

Aside from just delivering fuel to customers, MJ Tank Lines have been active serving the community.  For the last 15 years, the company has been very involved in the lives of disabled adults and children through various non-profit organizations in their local area.  Not only as a financial supporter, but more importantly, MJ Tank Lines have spent thousands of hours in volunteer support over the years helping those who are unable help themselves.
