Our Expansive Fleet

Efficiency, reliability, safety and flexibility are the cornerstones of our trucking business. In order to stay true to these all-important characteristics, we insist upon keeping a transportation fleet that is of the highest quality.

In 2010, our fleet consisted of 560 tractors and 830 temperature-controlled trailers. In 2011, it continued to grow.

As we are an asset-based company, we actually own all of our fleet, and use them as they best fit our customer needs. Owning has its advantages. Our customers experience it daily. Our customer service team can assign and immediately get a truck moving to satisfy the needs of a customer, whatever they may be. It is an efficient and flexible operation with an empowered team to make it happen.

At WEL we are invested in the future. We make a point of updating, maintaining, and even replacing various pieces of our fleet on a regular basis. Technology and safety features are constantly updated to ensure that our vehicles move freight safely, while also adhering to our green initiatives.

The average age of our tractors is 3 years, and the average age of our trailers is 4 years – both well below the industry average of fleet age. These vehicles put in a lot of hours, both regionally and nationwide, so we believe that they should be replaced once they start to show any signs of serious wear.

Here at WEL, what’s important to us is what is best for the customer. When it comes to our fleet, we refuse to provide our customers with anything less than a reliable and safe vehicle that will efficiently ship their goods while keeping our drivers safe. To run our fleet any other way, would be unacceptable.
