In the fall of 1849, Ebenezer Brown brought cattle to graze along the mountain stream of South Willow Creek. The next spring, Ebenezer moved with his wife Phebe (“Phebe Draper Palmer Brown”) and their family to settle in Sivogah, the Native American name for the area which means “Willows.” By the end of 1850, residents of the small settlement consisted of Ebenezer Brown and his three children (by a prior marriage), Phebe Draper Palmer Brown, and her two children (by a prior marriage), and Phebe’s brother, William Draper, Jr. and his large family numbering about fifteen. Consequently, by the end of the settlement’s first year, the majority of residents were members of the Draper Family, and William Draper, Jr. was soon called to be the presiding elder for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the area. During this time, the Drapers mainly farmed, and Ebenezer Brown ranched and sold cattle to immigrants heading to the gold fields of California along what became the Mormon Road. More settlers moved to Draper in the next few years. Later the area was called South Willow Creek. By 1852, 20 families lived along the creek. In 1854, the first post office was established with the name Draperville in recognition of William Draper, Jr. and its other Draper residents. The name of the town in later years was shortened to Draper. (William Draper, Sr., father of both William and Phebe Draper, who was older at the time of his family’s settlement of Draper is buried in the town cemetery.)

Hostilities with the Native Americans began in 1854, and a fort was established where the local settlers lived, during the winters of 1855 and 1856. The fort was never completed, as the feared hostilities did not materialize, and its former location is now the site of the Draper Historical Park and the aptly-named Fort Street.

In the 1940s, Draper was known as the “Egg Basket of Utah.” Eggs produced in Draper were marketed from coast to coast and the co-op furnished eggs for the military troops in the South Pacific during WWII. The poultry business was the single most important economic industry in Draper during this time. One large poultry farm was the Washburn Poultry Farm run by Bruce D. Washburn with over 10,000 chickens during the 1950s.

Draper remained a small farming community until the late 1990s, when its population began growing exponentially from 7,257 in 1990 to an estimated 47,710 in 2018.

Draper was incorporated as a city in 1978.

FTL Freight is great for time sensitive shipments that require specific pickup or drop-off times. The singular approach of moving all freight contents allows the driver to be focused on meeting specific dates and times for pickup or delivery.

FTL Freight also offers Team Driver options; which allows the freight to move at twice the rate of a single driver. This means that FTL Freight can move across the country at nearly 1,100 miles per day, without a potential HOS (hours of service) violation.
