Introduction
Every day, thousands of trucks crisscross the country carrying freight. But what happens after they deliver their cargo? Shockingly, nearly 1.8 million private fleet trucks return empty, wasting resources and contributing to alarming levels of emissions. PFNZ is changing that.
Understanding Empty Miles
Empty miles are a logistical blind spot in modern freight. Not only do they represent missed revenue, but they also burn fuel without delivering goods—generating unnecessary greenhouse gases and fine particulate matter.
The PFNZ Solution
PFNZ aggregates backhaul capacity from private fleets and matches them with freight from 3PLs and shippers, filling those return trips with purpose.
Benefits for Private Fleets
- New revenue from otherwise lost miles
- Improved asset utilization
- Contributing to net-zero goals with fewer emissions
Environmental Impact
Medium and heavy diesel trucks make up just 6% of vehicles but account for 25% of GHG emissions and over 50% of fine particulates. Reducing empty miles significantly shrinks this footprint.
Conclusion
Private fleets can be the backbone of a cleaner freight future. With PFNZ, sustainability and profitability are no longer at odds.
