Schneider National is extending its Regional service to customers in the South Central United States, increasing the company's regional footprint to 16 states in less than a year since it first launched the offering. This expansion includes the addition of 500 trucks and more drivers to the company's Regional fleet.

The firm first launched its Regional service to western U.S. customers in January 2008, providing service to a seven-state area including Arizona, California, Colorado, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, and Washington. The new South Central Regional service will add nine states to that list: Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Missouri, Arkansas, Louisiana, Tennessee, Mississippi, and Alabama. Regional terminals will be in Dallas, Houston, and Memphis and will serve as hubs for customer service representatives and drivers dedicated solely to this region. Regional drivers develop regular driving routes, allowing them more time at home and consistent workloads.

Marc Rogers is leading Schneider's Regional offerings in both the western and South Central United States.
