Schneider Trucks from 1940 to 2025

Founded by Al Schneider with a vision to build something extraordinary, the company has grown into a multimodal powerhouse with 19,400 associates and 12,500 trucks, logging over 9 million freight miles daily — the equivalent of circling the globe 370 times.

“Reaching 90 years is a remarkable achievement and a testament to the dedication of our current and former associates,” said Schneider President and CEO Mark Rourke. “From Al Schneider’s first delivery to our nearly 14,000 company drivers today, our story is one of innovation, adaptability, and a steadfast commitment to providing safe and reliable service to our customers.”

Honoring Excellence

Today’s event includes the induction of 30 new drivers to Schneider’s Haul of Fame, a special recognition for those who have achieved at least 3 million safe driving miles or 20 consecutive years without a preventable accident. For the first time in company history, five company drivers will receive their 4 million safe mile awards in the same year, and one driver achieved 5 million safe miles. There are only 435 drivers who have earned a plaque on the Haul of Fame wall, which underscores what a rare achievement it is and how important it is in Schneider’s deep-rooted culture of safety.

Driving the Future

As Schneider looks ahead, it continues to invest in strategic growth areas, including intermodal and cross-border services, particularly in Mexico, as well as further organic and acquisitive growth in Dedicated services. The company remains focused on delivering innovative, customer-centric solutions that meet the evolving demands of the global supply chain.

“We’re not just celebrating our past — we’re accelerating into the future,” said Rourke. “Our strong foundation in service, safety and operational excellence, paired with our associates and an openness to change anything but our values, ensures we’ll continue to set the standard for decades to come.”
