The SmartWay program is an initiative by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve fuel efficiency in the transportation sector. The program was launched in 2004 and is a voluntary partnership between the EPA and those in the supply chain.
SmartWay is available to any organization that moves freight in three different types of SmartWay partnerships—SmartWay shippers, SmartWay Carriers, like C&K Trucking, and SmartWay logistics companies, like our sister company, AV Logistics.
SmartWay partners include:
- Retailers
- Manufacturers
- Distributors
- Private fleets
- Truck and rail carriers
- Logistics companies
SmartWay encourages everyone to reduce their carbon footprint and harmful emissions in their respective sector by improving fuel efficiency and embracing sustainable transportation. C&K Trucking is proud to say that we have successfully met the environmental standards necessary for certification since 2010.
