About Roadrunner

We’re completely reinventing long-haul Less-Than-Truckload (LTL) shipping. Our Smart Network™ offers more direct long-haul metro-to-metro routes than any other nationwide LTL carrier in the United States, with service extending into Canada and Mexico and service centers across 40+ metro markets. Powered by AI and machine learning, our operations platform ensures real-time tracking, custodial control, and full shipment visibility. With driver teams executing over-the-road (OTR) moves, and no freight moving on rail, customers experience industry-leading transit times, minimal rehandling, and dramatically reduced risk of loss or damage. Our 1,000+ owner-operators benefit from scheduled freight, fewer touches by design, consistent long-haul density, and a differentiated metro-to-metro model that creates predictable earning opportunities. This precision and performance have earned Roadrunner national recognition by over 3,000 shippers, and was ranked this year #1 in Operations, #1 in Technology, and #1 in Value in the Quest for Quality Awards, as well as honors as a Top 100 Trucking Company by Inbound Logistics and a Top Tier Service Carrier by Mastio. We’re growing fast. Roadrunner is building something special with great people, a winning culture and a differentiated service offering in the marketplace.
