A state of the art fleet

Innovative, transportation management technology in order to offer our clients customized, efficient transportation solutions.

Equipment

We are proud to have a very modern fleet on the road where the average age of the fleet is 2.5 years and are equipped with on-board computers.

This technology provides our customers the ability to track their dedicated assets through our secure, customer-centric web-based tools which also allows:

  • Nu-Way drivers to utilize eDriver Logs, eliminating the stress of accurately completing paper logs.
  • Our operations and safety groups to manage overall fleet performance, monitor a variety of driver behavior factors to proactively manage trends, keep our fleet and drivers in compliance and keep your freight moving safely to its final destination.

From a unique beginning of four Ford F150 cargo vans performing specialized deliveries to our current fleet of approximately 350 power units that travel over 20 million miles each year throughout the United States, Nu-Way delivers!

Optimization Toolset

The Continuous Improvement and Engineering Team has a wide range of tools including Continuous Move Planner, Direct Route, Resource Pro, SAS Analytics, and Birst. These tools along with our operational expertise allows us to not only design efficient networks from large amounts of transactional data, but the integration with TMW creates a robust and dynamic solution for ongoing optimization.

Electronic OnBoard Computers

Our tractors are equipped with PeopleNet electronic on-board recorders (EOBRs), which play a key role in continuing to improve our safety record, reporting and productivity. Although electronic on-board recorders will soon be federally mandated in all heavy-duty vehicles, we opted to install the technology several years ago in order to have better visibility to what drivers and vehicles are doing on a minute-by-minute basis.

The EOBRs offer electronic logging and DVIRs and several additional capabilities, including data capture and communication, ECM integration, driver monitoring and GPS. The devices ensure time savings, increased productivity, customer satisfaction, tracking and improved communication.

Dash Cams

In September 2017 Nu-Way ventured in to yet another protective measure to help our drivers better their driving techniques. Nu-Way currently is 100% fully installed with the People Net dash cam system. This technology not only allows great visibility in the event of a vehicle accident, but allows the driver to interact with the company and show us what he/she see on a daily basis.

Our focus on the “near misses”, or the situations that show our driver’s defensive driving strategies at work have greatly impacted the safety of our drivers. The Dash Cam program assists not only the potential litigation risk if involved in an accident, but also the driver perspective on how he/she can constantly tweak their known skills to allow them to always be that defensive driver.

Nu-Way Horizons

This secure customer web portal allows all of our customers to take advantage of the PeopleNet communication device in our fleet. While our Operations Team is happy to answer any customer requests, we also offer real-time shipment tracking and asset visibility information on-line. Not only does the map show where a truck is, it also has the power to tell the user where it has been, at what time, specific delivery information, and ETA on future planned stops.
