John Christner Trucking, Sapulpa, Okla., was awarded the SmartWay Excellence Award for its reductions in environmental impact since becoming a SmartWay Transport Partner in 2004.


Every year the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency recognizes those organizations that strive to reduce their effects on the environment with SmartWay Excellence Awards. The awards honor those companies that work hard to help the environment by participating in the SmartWay Transport Partnership.

"JCT has improved fuel efficiency by 9 percent and saved more than 23 thousand tons of CO2 since joining SmartWay," says Steve Dickson, vice president of maintenance. "The company is also now working with manufacturers to test three types of automatic tire inflation devices to help ensure that drivers can be easily notified of tire pressure."

JCT is constantly taking measures to upgrade and improve its fleet of trucks. They have invested in a broad range of fuel saving technologies and policies including auxiliary power units, engine shutdown technologies, aerodynamic equipment, engine speed management and advanced lubricants.
