  • Driven to higher standards of social responsibility.
  • Driven to supply Dependable, Reliable and Responsible service.

DEPENDABLE

We demand the best from our drivers and we reward them with top pay and the respect they deserve.  Out of respect for what they do, we call our drivers “Road Pilots”.

Green Transportation was founded with the mission of raising the standards in our industry.  We demand the best from our drivers and reward them with top pay and the respect they deserve.  Our West coast service has 100% team driver availability for speed and DOT compliance.  We encourage customers to check our safety rating.  Our drivers are carefully screened during our hiring process.  They must agree to abide by our “code of conduct” and participate in training on self-reliance, customer service and freight handling.

They agree to be present and assist in unloading their trailer and to treat the receiver with respect.  They agree to depart at a predetermined time, to “chain up” when necessary and to travel “out-of-route” to avoid inclement weather.  Finally they agree to be monitored on their shifting, idling and speed limit observance in our Green Fuel Savings Program.

RELIABLE
Our equipment was chosen for reliability and efficiency.  Our tractor fleet averages less than 2 years of age.  We run 100% air ride logistics trailers.  Our entire fleet is professionally maintained, with sophisticated service software that captures data from each 80-point inspection to ensure maximum equipment uptime.  In addition to this rigorous mechanical maintenance, our tractors and trailers are routinely cleaned, inside and out.  Premium equipment, meticulously maintained and driven by Green Transportation Road Pilots delivers reliable service.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT

RESPONSIBLE
Here at Green Transportation, a higher standard of service is surprisingly affordable.  By closely partnering with a premium LTL carrier, we can offer head load rates whereby customers pay only for the space used in our trailer.  There is no delay to the schedule with head loads.  Discounts can exceed 30% depending upon the size of the shipment.  The head load shipper saves money, the LTL shipper saves money and there is more revenue for Green Transportation.  This revenue is shared with our Road Pilots, whose dependable service recycles to benefit the shipper.

When empty space is used instead of wasted, it does amazing things for our planet.  20 feet of empty space in a trailer traveling 2,000 miles is responsible for over 3,000 pounds of unnecessary carbon dioxide emissions.  Every time 53 feet of empty space is used instead of being wasted, one less truck will be on our roadways.  This reduces road congestion, road wear and the potential for collisions.  Green Transportation uses every possible cubic foot of space on their trailers because it’s the responsible thing to do.
