Safety is Our #1 Priority

At Fort Transfer, we go the extra mile to ensure our safety practices are of the highest possible standards. Each day our customers trust us to safely transport products all across North America. Each year, our drivers cover millions of safely-driven miles.

This is largely due to the safety requirements enforced on each Fort driver.

Driver performance is monitored regularly in accordance with DOT guidelines. On going training sessions include:

  • Emergency response procedures
  • Safe driving techniques
  • Operation of safety equipment
  • Extensive on-the-job training

Safety reaches beyond transportation into storage of liquid bulk products. Since its opening in 1987, Fort's bulk storage facility has been used as a benchmark for developing standards for all liquid bulk storage safety requirements set by the State of Illinois.

IT ALL ADDS UP!

Fort Transfer's unique combination of driver and emergency training preventative maintenance and safety procedures continue to pay off.

Because of Fort's virtually unmatched safety record, major corporations have asked Fort Transfer to help produce several award-winning safety and training films.

When it comes to safety, you might just say Fort Transfer wrote the book.
