The company’s fleet includes 53’ and 30’ dry vans, 53’ heated van, single and double floor, which allows them to transport a wide range of commodities. One of the key features that sets the company apart from its competitors is their commitment to safety. MRT has a comprehensive safety program that includes regular training for its drivers, strict maintenance protocols for their equipment, and rigorous adherence to government regulations. They also use advanced technology, such as Isaac e-log and dashcam, including GPS position of the fleet, to monitor their drivers’ behavior and ensure compliance with safety protocols.
