Tri State Cab is located in East Liverpool, Ohio where it was founded by Alfred "Jim" Hissom in 1993.

As a young man, fresh out of High School, Jim served in the United States Army. After opening Tri State Cab in 1993, He spent the next 25 years of his life providing transportation to anyone and everyone in the tri state area of East Liverpool, OH, at times giving free rides to those who could not always afford to pay. He had a very soft spot in his heart for our American Veterans and would go above and beyond to make sure they got where they needed to go when they called on him for a ride.

When Jim first opened Tri State Cab, he was the only driver and the only dispatcher. He practically lived in his office answering the phone, then running out to give the caller a ride. A few of his good friends came on board to help him and before long, he had a full crew. During his 25 years of providing transportation to residents in the many areas of Ohio, West Virginia and Pennsylvania he serviced, Jim provided jobs for many people over the years. His last month of servicing the community with transportation was at the end of April 2018 when he decided to retire.

When Jim retired in 2018, his daughter took over the company to keep it going. Since Amy took over the reins, she has gained many new accounts, servicing the community through the local hospital, rehabilitation facilities, and local government outreach programs, as well as the community at large. Amy is working on gaining the non emergency medical transportation license needed to serve those who receive Ohio Medicaid and Medicare to make sure they have transportation to and from doctor appointments. With a new fleet of cars and Medical Wheelchair van, Tri State Cab is on its way to offering more transportation services to those in need.
