Did you know that CR England is a SmartWay Excellence Award Winner? When I learned this, I was excited that a trucking company was environmentally friendly. When thinking about trucking companies and environmentally friendly, people don’t usually think of those two phrases to fit together.

So, those who drive for CR England have the satisfaction that they are working for a company that cares about the environment. Those who are choosing a trucking school and company to work with can know that they are helping the planet by working for someone who cares.

The reason for the award was CR England’s conscious effort of conserving energy and thereby lowering the green house gases. The Director of Fuel, Mitch England, stated “SmartWaySM has been a valuable and important resource for us. Through this partnership we have realized our goal of improving the environment through decreasing fuel consumption, improving efficiency, and saving money… We would encourage all those in the transportation industry to consider joining SmartWay.”

I was excited to hear how they did it. They reduced carbon dioxide emissions by 544,160 tons and then saved 49,023,390 gallons of fuel by putting into action a fuel savings policy. Ideas like lowering the maximum speed and idle times on trucks, as well as taking advantage of new technologies that lowers deadhead and miles that are off the route. They even added aerodynamic gear to their trailers and tractors to save on the fuel.

If you are interested in working for such an environmentally friendly trucking company, go to www.CREngland.com and apply. You would be working for a company that hasn’t lain off a truck driver since day one of business, 90 years ago. They care about the environment and their drivers.
