How it works: We know how many kilowatt hours of electricity it takes to produce a job, and we allot that time to be used accordingly.

Environmental Protection Agency’s SmartWay Partnership is founded on the premise that partners are committed to programs and management practices reducing greenhouse gas in freight transportation. Independent works diligently to improve our fleet’s fuel efficiency. We operate Freightliner Sprinter trucks using 5-cylinder diesel engines, which average 23 MPG as compared to more traditional gasoline engines at 13 MPG.
