Werner Enterprises Restructures One-Way Fleet to Improve Utilization and Boost Profitability

Werner Enterprises is restructuring its one-way truckload business to improve fleet utilization and profitability. The company will transition to more profitable services like expedited, cross-border, and long-haul delivery using driver teams. Werner is also exiting unprofitable regional and short-haul business and integrating past fleet acquisitions. The move comes as Werner is making a bigger push into dedicated trucking, a more defensible business model featuring multiyear contracts with shippers.
