Distribution & Logistics Services in Connecticut

OUR SERVICES
Our Connecticut Distribution & Logistics Services
Balas Distributing provides a full range of supply chain services to Connecticut businesses. Whether you need consistent product supply, scalable freight solutions, or integrated warehousing support, our team delivers with the reliability and operational expertise that comes from nearly 80 years in the industry.
Automotive Lubricant & Chemical Distribution
We stock and deliver a comprehensive range of automotive lubricants, DEF, antifreeze, specialty oils, and industrial chemicals to businesses across Connecticut. As an authorized distributor for Valvoline, Shell, Castrol, and Starfire, we provide the brands your customers trust — with the inventory depth and delivery consistency your operation depends on.
Warehousing & Inventory Management
Our warehouse operations support Connecticut businesses with temperature-controlled storage, bulk and packaged product handling, real-time inventory tracking, and custom order fulfillment. We manage your inventory so you can focus on your business — reducing stockouts, improving turns, and ensuring product availability when you need it.
Transportation & Freight Services
Our fleet of 48′ to 53′ vans and box trucks — equipped with liftgates, swing doors, and roll-up doors — serves Connecticut with dedicated route delivery, full truckload (FTL), LTL, and multi-stop distribution. With hazmat-certified and tanker-certified drivers, we handle everything from standard palletized freight to bulk liquid and hazardous materials transportation.
Freight Brokerage & Extended Capacity
When your Connecticut freight needs exceed our fleet capacity, our brokerage division connects you with a vetted carrier network aligned to your lanes and service requirements. We provide the flexibility to scale up during peak seasons or handle one-off shipments — all managed with the same level of visibility and accountability as our asset-based operations.
