Team Matters - No. 7 - 2023

MAINTAINING A TOP-NOTCH FLEET

Investments Ensure We Have The Best, Safest Equipment Our top-notch equipment is an important part of our professional standard. If our 2023 purchases are any indication, we’re continuing to invest for the future so our associates can have the best possible quality of life and safest driving experience in the industry. These investments include 502 Freightliner sleeper trucks, 535 Volvo tandem daycabs, 100 forklifts, 450 roll-up trailers, 785 swing-door trailers and 300 40- foot chassis. Additionally, we’re continuing our commitment to environmental sustainability by purchasing 10 electric forklifts that will be used in our Distribution & Fulfillment facilities and the new Mobile service center. FOCUSING ON SAFETY As has been the case for many years, our trucks provide drivers with

state-of-the-art safety features. These include adaptive cruise control, as well as collision-avoidance, roll-stability and lane-departure warning systems. We’re also continuing to protect our driving force through forward-facing cameras, which can help prevent false accusations by other motorists. As we move forward, we’ll continue to invest in recruiting the best associates, providing you with the best equipment and amenities, and keeping you safe with dynamic safety features. It’s all about ensuring we can share a bright future together! T m
