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 through our
commitment to increase the amount of freight shipped via SmartWay carriers by at least 10% per year.
Working together, we truly can 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. |
