ABF Freight System, Inc.^®

ABF^® handles 23,000 shipments a day. Each year, it moves goods valued at approximately $16 billion. Yet, less than one percent of the shipments it handled during the past decade sustained a loss or damage. No other national carrier comes close to matching its record.

ABF operates one of the newest, best-maintained fleets on the road—1,600 road tractors, 2,700 city tractors, and more than 17,000 trailers. Strategically located throughout North America, ABF’s customer-service and distribution centers facilitate a network of freight handling efficiency.

ABF employs 13,000 people, including 7,000 drivers. Its core business is less-than-truckload (LTL) shipping, consolidating freight from multiple shippers into a single truckload. However, the carrier has the ability, means, and expertise to handle virtually any shipping challenge.
