This year marks a major milestone at U.S. Xpress – 40 years of moving freight, supporting drivers, and delivering for our customers across\u00a0<\/span><\/span>the United States<\/span>. Since delivering our first load in 1986, U.S. Xpress has grown from a\u00a0<\/span><\/span>small trucking company\u00a0<\/span><\/span>with big ambitions into one of the nation\u2019s leading transportation providers. But while a lot has changed over the years, one thing has\u00a0<\/span><\/span>remained<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>constant: our commitment to our people and the communities we serve.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”0px||0px||false|false” custom_padding=”0px||8px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]

Built on Relationships<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

From day one, our success has been driven by the relationships\u00a0<\/span><\/span>we\u2019ve<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>buil<\/span>t\u00a0<\/span><\/span>with our drivers, employees, customers, and communities. Trucking is more than freight and miles;\u00a0<\/span><\/span>it\u2019s<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>about trust.\u00a0<\/span><\/span>For four decades, drivers\u00a0<\/span><\/span>have trusted<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span>U.S. Xpress as the place to build<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span>their careers<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>and achieve personal goals. Many have spent decades with us, and some families even have multiple generations\u00a0<\/span><\/span>who\u2019ve<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>worn the U.S. Xpress name with pride<\/span><\/span>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”3_5,2_5″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”0px|0px|0px|0px|false|false” custom_padding=”16px||16px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”3_5″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”0px||0px||false|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]

At the heart of\u00a0<\/span><\/span>what we do\u00a0<\/span><\/span>are the\u00a0<\/span><\/span>truck<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>drivers who\u00a0<\/span><\/span>represent<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>U.S. Xpress on the road every day. Their skill, commitment, and focus on safety\u00a0<\/span><\/span>keep us moving forward.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

We\u2019re\u00a0especially proud to recognize an\u00a0impressive achievement\u00a0in safe driving\u00a0across our fleet:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
