Roehl Transport recently added to a string of top industry honors for safety with a prestigious Truckload Carriers Association (TCA) Safety Award. The award, based on an independent audit of the company's DOT recordable accident record,
is the latest earned over the past three years confirming Roehl's superior safety performance.
Roehl has also won top-level safety awards from the American Trucking Associations (ATA) for 2004 and 2005 (van and flatbed fleets), the Safety and Operational Excellence Platinum Award from Great West Risk Management four years running, and the ATA's 2005 Excellence in Claims/Loss Prevention Award.
Offering one of the top 10 driver pay packages in the nation and industry leading home time options further allows the company to hire and keep safe drivers. With experienced driver pay in the $55,000 to $75,000 range and a dramatic increase in family time, Roehl sees over-the-road driving as a true profession.
The TCA award recognizes Roehl as one of safest carriers in the nation among those truckload companies that run more than 100 million miles annually. The company had only .40 DOT reportable accidents per million miles compared to an industry average of .58 for its large carrier division. Over 120 truckload carriers were evaluated for the 2006 TCA awards. Roehl also boasts one of the top DOT SafeStat scores in the nation that includes not just reportable accident data but also considers DOT inspection compliance and incidences of traffic citations/reports.
Roehl is one of the 100 largest trucking companies in the U.S., offering van, curtainside, flatbed and dedicated fleet services. For more information, call: 800-GO-ROEHL or visit www.GoRoehl.com.
