"Since we adopted the new YRC Freight brand in February, we have been focusing on our core LTL business and the fundamentals of superior customer service," said Jeff Rogers, YRC Freight president, who accepted the award on behalf of YRC Freight. "Those efforts are paying off. We appreciate this recognition from such a prestigious organization as NASSTRAC and we plan to be back in the winner's circle next year as we continue improving our network and service."

The annual NASSTRAC awards program recognizes carriers that have demonstrated excellence and also helps shippers identify the "best of the best" in carrier performance and value.

Through an online survey, NASSTRAC members ranked carriers on a four-point scale in the following five key areas: (1) customer service; (2) operational excellence; (3) delivery flexibility, billing accuracy and claims resolution; (4) business relationship effectiveness; and (5) leadership in technology.

"As a shipper-based association we leverage this national awards program to continuously encourage performance excellence in various market segments of transportation. Shippers and carriers alike see this to be a very credible program through which appropriate industry recognition is given."
