Roehl Transport Connects with Driver Causes

 

Roehl has long been known as a “green” company when it comes to driver pay, but it’s also a great company for drivers who care about the environment and being associated with a socially responsible company.

 

The carrier was among a handful of trucking companies honored by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency last month for its leading efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from truck exhaust. The company received the agency’s first SmartWay SM Award of Excellence.

 

“Environmental responsibility goes hand-in-hand with our award for being one of the safest carriers in the nation,” Vice President of Maintenance Phil Trierweiler said. “It’s all part of being a socially-responsible company, a good corporate citizen.”

 

In fact, companies that conduct themselves with integrity and do the right thing socially are more likely to also treat drivers better, company Vice President of Workforce Development and Administration Greg Koepel noted. “You can’t say you’re going to treat the public right without transferring that same attitude to employees and customers,” he said. “That’s why Roehl offers drivers one of nation’s top pay packages; industry-leading home time; and the equipment, freight and support to make them more successful.”

 

“It’s important that people can be proud of the place they work, what their company stands for,” Greg Koepel added. “Driving a truck is a tremendously important job. Our drivers can say they not only are vital to the nation’s economy, they are also part of a positive effort to improve the environment and public safety. I know these issues are important to the men and women who are part of the Roehl team.”

 

Known as The Take Home More, Be Home More Carrier, Roehl offers drivers the industry’s only FIVE-STAR PAY™ Plan; guaranteed home time options; and a choice of van, curtainside or flatbed; national, regional or dedicated fleets. For more information, call 800-467-6345 or visit www.GoRoehl.com
