Our Services - Experience Excellence
Too often delivery companies take advantage of their employees. Here at Pony Xpress, we know we are only the best because of our employees. Happy employees means happy customers.
When we deliver goods, we are promising safe, on time delivery. We provide linehaul for Fedex and Amazon as well as Last Mile Pickup & Delivery for Fedex. We have a new and well maintained fleet of vehicles, all less than 3 years.
We offer an extremely safe work environment, competitive pay and top-rate suite of benefits to our team, which in turn allows us to hire the best, safest drivers.
Top Safety-Rated Career Path
As an Amazon Freight Partner, we have been recognized consistently for having the highest level of safety as compared to all carriers hauling for Amazon. FedEx recognizes Pony Xpress monthly, as well, for having the highest level of safety in our pick-up and delivery businesses.
Most importantly for our team, there are real opportunities to grow a career with our company. A driver can start as a step van or box truck driver and eventually develop their skill sets to earn a CDL role, driving a tractor-trailer.
