History
Everett Roehl founded Roehl Transport in 1962 with a single truck.[2]
In 2019, the company enhanced Practical Route Mileage pay with address-to-address mileage calculations,[3] creating a new category of cents per mile (CPM) pay.[4]
Operations
The company has over 2,950 employees, 2,250 tractors and 5,000 trailers with major terminal operations in Marshfield and Appleton, Wisconsin, the Chicago area, Atlanta, Georgia, Phoenix, Arizona, and Dallas.[5]
Employee training
The company provides on the job training to recent CDL school graduates and has done so since the late 1980s. The Roehl Transport CDL School was a certified truck driving school located next to Roehl Transport that has since become the Get Your CDL Program. In 2015, Roehl became the first major carrier to hire, train and pay CDL candidates as employees in the Get Your CDL Program.
Sustainability
In 2013, the company partnered with U.S. Oil's GAIN Clean Fuels division to open a compressed natural gas (CNG) station in Gary, Indiana.[6] The CNG station is one of the largest in the Midwest.[7]
