Fleet electrification
Alternative and renewable fuels
Cleaner-burning engines
Fuel efficiency
Freight efficiency
“Green” facilities
Testing new sustainable technologies
Fleets can apply to be considered or may be nominated by others.
Companies chosen as a 2023 Top Green Fleet will be included in the June issue of HDT magazine and on Truckinginfo.com and in e-newsletters. Each fleet will receive a certificate suitable for framing. Winners will be able to publicize this recognition of its “green” efforts to customers and the general public.
