Heavy Duty Trucking is extending the deadline for nominations to be a part of the 2015 Top 50 Green Fleets to Oct. 6.
We want to identify the greenest fleets in the country for our Top Green Fleets issue and at the same time learn more about our nation’s fleets. HDT is looking for fleets that have made a commitment to sustainability, reducing emissions, increasing fuel economy or adapting new fuels.
The designation goes beyond the truck and trailer and extends to facilities that are greener or companies with green policies. Fleets of all sizes and types are encouraged to enter.
To nominated a fleet, or even your own, fill out our short online survey with basic information about the fleet, its alternative fuel use and SmartWay participation. There is also room to make additional comments for any “green” projects that fall outside of those categories.
The 50 greenest fleets will be featured in the November Issue of HDT and on Truckinginfo.com so please take a few minutes and let us know about your fleet so we can spread the word. You can check out the 2014 Top 50 Green Fleets here.
