and value are the keys that drive their customer service.
Tiger is committed to taking a leadership role in the protection of
the environment by using the guidelines of the SmartWay Transport Partnership. As
a qualified carrier, Tiger is proud to share how they strive to operate
an environmentally friendly fleet:
- Operates 2007 and 2008 Freightliner Columbia Series Tractors with
full factory wind-faring systems.
- Trucks are set to shut off after idling for 10 minutes.
- Trucks are equipped with an auto-shift system that optimizes shifting
for fuel efficiency.
- Tractors use a rechargeable battery operated nite bunk heating/cooling
system for no-idle sleeper berth time.
- Tractor and trailers utilize Michelin X-One series tires, equipped
with run-flat for optimal tire balance.
- Utility 4000 DX 53 ft. dry vans are equipped with an auto-tire
pressure monitoring maintenance system.
- Utilizes the PeopleNet PerformX Solution to remotely retrieve key
engine operating information such as idle time, with driver incentives
for exceptional performance.
- Electronic toll and scale passes help maintain speed which is capped
at 65 mph.
- Tiger pays for driver access to Idle-Air facilities to eliminate
idle time on the 34 hour reset.
- Tiger takes time every day to encourage fuel management responsibility,
reward good behavior and coach underachievers.
“Understanding that the main driver components of idle time
are speed, shift, and idle, we implemented technologies to take those
factors out of the drivers' hands. Our technology allows
us to monitor driver behavior and provide feedback immediately.
We take very seriously our commitment to making the world a better
place for our children. We are very proud to be a SmartWay Partner
and our customers are proud to do business with us because of it.”
— Dan Noyes, COO Tiger Transport
