Leading the way to cleaner, more efficient transportation.
When you ship with Pilot Freight Services you’re making a better
choice for your business and environment. Pilot is part of the SmartWay
Transport program— The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA)
initiative for cleaner and more efficient transportation options.
This
innovative collaboration between the freight industry and government
aims to reduce air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions, improve
fuel efficiency, and strengthen the freight sector. SmartWay’s goal
is “getting there with cleaner air.”
A top priority for Pilot is partnering
with carriers who are also partners in the SmartWay program. And
we are building new SmartWay relationships every day. Pilot is committed
to increasing the amount of freight shipped via SmartWay carriers
by at least 10% per year.
Working together, we can really
make a difference. The EPA estimates the program will save 3.3. to
6.6 billion gallons of diesel fuel annually, equivalent to 150 million
barrels of oil. That’s
like taking 12 million cars off the road. And saving fuel means saving
costs.
SmartWay shipping with Pilot Freight Services
is a wiser, more efficient way to deliver your goods. By doing so,
you reduce demand for fossil fuels, contribute to cleaner, clearer
skies and ensure a healthier environment for generations to come. |
