Tight profit margins and high fuel costs are encouraging shippers and freight carriers across the country to find new ways to reduce their fuel use. The SmartWay Transport Partnership aims to address these concerns with a voluntary public-private initiative focused on improving the fuel efficiency of goods movement in the U.S. Participating companies benefit with reduced shipping costs through improved management practices and technologies.

This session will highlight how shippers can work with their carriers to save fuel and money while demonstrating to customers, clients, and investors that they are taking responsibility for freight emissions throughout their supply chain. Attendees will learn about how SmartWay Transport shipper and carrier Partners use new technologies and management practices to improve their efficiency and reduce fuel use and emissions. Attendees will also learn about the valuable tools and resources the SmartWay Transport Partnership provides to quantify the efficiency of ground freight operations. The benefits for both shippers and carriers will then be explained in terms of the potential fuel savings, cost savings, improved information and resources, competitive advantages gained, and enhanced public relations. SmartWay Partners who demonstrate their commitment to improving fuel efficiency qualify to use the SmartWay logo to enhance their visibility as a good corporate citizen and fuel efficient business partner.
