Hazelwood, Missouri, June 18, 2021 – For the fifth consecutive year, Hazelwood, Missouri trucking company Artur Express has been named a top 250 carrier by the Commercial Carrier Journal (CCJ), a respected industry-related publication that ranks the country’s top trucking companies each year.

“The CCJ Top 250 represents the most comprehensive ranking of active carriers in the industry as it takes into account not only the revenues posted by a trucking company but also its fleet size and employment base,” CCJ website states.

Artur Express first ranked 192 on the list in 2016. Since then, Artur Express has jumped several spots and is now ranked 120 of the 250 fleets listed.

“It’s an honor to be ranked alongside some of the most respected carriers in the industry. 2020 was a challenging year for all.

About the CCJ Top 250

Commercial Carrier Journal has ranked the top for-hire trucking companies since the late 1960s. The CCJ Top 250 represents the most comprehensive ranking of active carriers in the industry as it takes into account not only the revenues posted by a trucking company but also its fleet size and employment base.

Rankings based strictly on revenues often capture activities that have only an indirect relationship to transportation. Blending revenue, equipment and drivers also allows for a reasonable way to capture carriers that decline to disclose revenue.

The CCJ Top 250 ranking treats all carriers under one umbrella as a single entity; carriers with significant ownership by an individual, family or company but not organized under a single management team are treated separately.
