You may not think much about your logistics company’s fleet of trucks, but it’s a critically important part of the equation. The size and diversity of a fleet is often what sets good logistics companies apart from unreliable ones.

- Straight trucks with lift gates to facilitate loading and unloading of heavy packages
- Box trucks to quickly and easily move standard freight long distances
- Tractor-trailers for large over-the-road shipments
- Sprinter vans with higher roofs to fit oversized packages
- Cargo vans for standard shipments of smaller packages
- Courier vehicles for the smallest packages and envelopes
Having such a diverse fleet at our disposal means that we can better serve a wider variety of customers faster throughout Salt Lake City, Denver, Boise, and beyond. Using a logistics company with a large fleet means you don’t have to wait for a truck to become available to deliver your cargo — the vehicles are ready and waiting for you.
Regimented Maintenance Schedule
Having a large fleet also allows us to keep our vehicles better maintained. If we had to keep 100% of our trucks in service all day, every day, to meet on-time delivery promises, we would not have the time to inspect them properly. We adhere to a strict maintenance schedule for all our trucks, often performing routine tasks as well as preventive checks of critical parts and systems.
Our Fleet Is Greener
When choosing our contractors, we look for owners of trucks that are newer and more fuel efficient, because we know that delivery trucks have an impact on the environment. With our contractors, as well as our own trucks, we seek to lower diesel emissions, shrinking our carbon footprint as much as possible.
Business owners and operators who need to ship cargo throughout the Rocky Mountain West, including Utah, Idaho, and Colorado, can rely on Western Peaks Logistics for accurate, safe, on-time deliveries.
