Read about past Small Fleet Champ competitors, finalists and winners via this link.How does it work? Overdrive editors review submitted information, interview the outstanding applicants, and with a panel of judges select finalists in two categories. The Small Fleet Champs will be named in late October at the Nashville, Tennessee, annual conference of the National Association of Small Trucking Companies, the Small Fleet Champ program's sponsor. NASTC is dedicated to helping small trucking companies control their costs through managed purchasing, analysis, consultation and advocacy. The organization's ultimate mission is to level the competitive playing field, allowing member companies to grow, prosper and remain a significant force in trucking.
