The Commercial Carrier Journal released the “CCJ Top 250” in August. Saddle Creek is proud to be among the top for-hire carriers in the U.S.

The annual ranking of top carriers is based not only on revenue but also fleet size and number of drivers. Saddle Creek ranked 165 on this year’s list.

Our for-hire fleet offers short-haul and regional service from campus locations around the country, including Atlanta; Charlotte; Lakeland, FL; and Fort Worth, Texas. We also run dedicated fleet operations for several customers. Our fleet boasts industry-leading safety ratings, and on-time performance tops 99 percent.

More than 40 percent of Saddle Creek’s fleet operates on compressed-natural-gas (CNG) to give customers an eco-friendly transportation option. Each truck saves about a pound of carbon for every mile traveled.

“As our ranking on the CCJ Top 250 indicates, we’re well positioned to meet our customers’ need for dependable, cost-effective transportation,” says Mike DelBovo, president, Saddle Creek Transportation. “Our short-haul and regional service will give customers committed capacity as markets are expected to tighten up later this year.
