ENVIRONMENTAL INITIATIVES

CRSI is honored to be a SmartWaySM Transport Partner. We take our commitment to the SmartWaySM initiative seriously and are committed to improving energy efficiency, reducing greenhouse gas and air pollutant emissions and improving energy security.

Some examples of how we honor our commitment to environmental issues are:

  • One of the lowest fleet idle percentages in the industry controlled through ICON idle combined with utilizing auxiliary heaters
  • Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) reduces paper waste and promotes a paper-free work environment
  • Use of T2R reefer tracking that monitors trailer location for immediate dispatch needs as well as reefer conditions, notifying dispatch issues that might indicate a concern
  • Utilization of the latest in chute technology that provides precise temperature control and sets our reefers to conserve fuel and reduce our carbon foot print, without compromising the load
  • The highest MPG averages in the industry for a refrigerated fleet
  • Utilizing Michelin X-One wide base technologies offering the latest in fuel efficient tires that are some of the safest
  • Following California compliance guidelines to make our trailers not only SmartWay compliant but also California compliant by adding advanced technologies to decrease fuel usage on all equipment
  • Voluntarily putting the ARB number on every unit showing our customers that we can go in and out of California with no delays
