Our businesses are individually powerful, and together they boast an unmatched network know-how, experience, and innovation. Our over-the-road (OTR) division offers an asset-based fleet across the United States with both solo and expedited solutions, and flex capacity to cover surges and special projects. Our Dedicated division offers customers the flexible, on-demand capacity of their own private fleet delivering every day, without the hassle of having to manage one. U.S. Xpress brokerage division, Xpress Technologies, gives shippers access to a full-service fleet backed by a strong freight brokerage network. For carriers, it helps keep their trucks running and income rolling, with support from our people and technology. We also know our people are the key to our success.

To best serve our diverse customer base, including many Fortune 500 companies that fall within a broad spectrum of geographies and end markets, U.S. Xpress operates two primary segments, truckload and brokerage. The truckload segment offers asset-based services, including the over-the-road (“OTR”) and dedicated contract services consisting of approximately 6,500 tractors and 13,500 trailers. Our brokerage segment consists of a network of more than 25,000 carriers. On the road as well as in our shops and offices, U.S. Xpress operates with a consciousness of environmental responsibility. Here, we spotlight a few of the steps we’re taking to help minimize our environmental impact. This is a top priority for the company with an aggressive goal of reducing our carbon footprint 60% by 2035. And we are already seeing results, as evidenced by our 15-year partnership and continued commitment to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) SmartWay program. We consistently rank in the top 20% of SmartWay carriers, producing 16% less smog from 2017 to 2018, have been recognized with two SmartWay Excellence Awards for industry-leading efficiency and contributions to clean air, and have reduced our Carbon Dioxide Grams Per Mile footprint by 11%. We’re testing and implementing a wide range of innovative solutions across our entire fleet including: • Testing Climate Battery Powered Auxiliary Power Units (APU) in 600 of our new tractors, with expected improvements in reduced idle time, lower fuel consumption and higher efficiency meeting thermal demands of the cab environment. • Applications include parking locators to reduce wasted miles driven locating open parking spaces, increasing efficiency of available driving hours. • Telematics, geo-fencing, and global position tracking to route vehicles into service facilities. • Predictive analytics to bring vehicles in for service before service failures occur over-the-road. • Reduced maximum speeds of our tractors by two miles per hour, which lowers wind resistance and emissions output.
