摘要

BRIDGE CITY, Texas - March 9, 2009 - Schneider National, Inc., a premier provider of transportation, intermodal and logistics services, announced today that it is endorsing FuelSurchargeIndex.org as an improved alternative to the fuel surcharge mechanism used by carriers and shippers for more than 35 years. This new tool (a product of ProMiles Software Development Corporation) gives shippers a precise, accurate calculation of their carrier's cost of fuel for every load moved. It also provides users with visibility to auditable and verifiable fuel costs at the time of shipment - features not available with any other fuel surcharge program today.
