Sustainably Driven

Our approved LTL carrier network is intentionally built around environmental performance. It includes a mix of national and regional carriers selected for complementary environmental strengths across different freight profiles and geographies.

We prioritize carriers that actively reduce emissions through lower-emission equipment, operational efficiency, and third-party accountability. That means fleets running on alternative fuels or electrification where it makes sense, route and load planning that cuts unnecessary miles, and participation in recognized programs like SmartWay or ISO-certified environmental management systems.

We assess carriers across three key areas of real-world impact, so we can ensure measurable emissions reductions today and credible long-term decarbonization strategies.

Lower-Emission Assets & Energy Transition

We recognize that transition pathways differ by geography and freight type, so we value demonstrated progress over uniform technology adoption.

  • Alternative fuels

  • EVs

  • electrification

Freight Efficiency & Emissions Avoidance

The most immediate emissions reductions come from moving freight more efficiently—not just changing fuels.

  • Route optimization

  • load consolidation

  • technology

Accountability, Transparency & Third-Party Validation

We prioritize carriers willing to measure, disclose, and improve—because environmental performance must be verifiable.

  • SmartWay participation

  • ISO certification

  • Sustainability reporting
