Turn the page and get ready to applaud as Fleet Owner aims the spotlight on this year's winners of its Fleet of the Year Awards — one each from the for-hire, private and vocational segments of trucking.

Each honored fleet operation has been selected by the editors in recognition of the innovative management techniques its owners and/or executives have implemented to advance the fleet's overall mission and to overcome any immediate roadblocks to continued success.

Fleet Owner recognizes each of these winning fleets for achievements that fully reveal excellence in operational management. That's why nominations are not sought for these awards nor are they linked to any industry association or influenced by any outside group. Rather, candidates are identified and researched by Fleet Owner's editors, who then determine the winners.

The challenges facing for-hire, private and vocational fleets may vary as their operations do, but all of our honorees exemplify the mark of leadership we are proud to salute with Fleet Owner's Ninth Annual Fleet of the Year Awards.
