Roehl Transport has been honored with a
2020 SmartWay Excellence Award from the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). This is the ninth time Roehl has received this award, and Roehl is one of only 58 truck and multimodal carriers to receive this distinction. That places Roehl in the top 2% of the EPA SmartWay’s 3,700 partners.
This year’s awards were announced at a virtual press event hosted by the EPA with its SmartWay Partners, key stakeholders and media in attendance.

EPA’s SmartWay Transport Partnership is a market-driven initiative that empowers businesses to move goods in the cleanest, most energy-efficient way possible, while protecting public health and reducing air pollution. Demonstrating a commitment to corporate sustainability and social responsibility through SmartWay provides for a more competitive business environment, while enabling partners to make freight decisions that have a positive impact on efficiency and the environment.
