Every year, Highway Transport celebrates National Truck Driver Appreciation Week. In 2016 Highway Transport also began the process of expansion into a new market: Pittsburgh, PA. Chemical tanker drivers are an elite class of drivers with a very unique set of skills. They are very committed to safety, very knowledgeable about chemicals.
“They are everyday heroes with the deepest commitment to safety. Plus, our drivers really shine…literally and figuratively,” says Greg Watkins, CEO of Highway Transport Logistics, Inc.
“Our driving fleet is eye-popping. We have one of the cleanest and most well-maintained truck fleets on the road. Our shops are staffed with top mechanics and tank wash professionals.”

“It’s not just trucking.” adds Watkins, “Highway Transport jobs require understanding the finer details of specialty chemicals and logistics. The Pittsburgh area workforce has a reputation for professionalism and the mindful approach needed for the type of work we do.” adds Watkins “Pittsburgh has been evolving since the 2008 recession. The region is undergoing a renaissance, and Highway Transport Chemical wants to be a part of that new business model, that spirit of growth.”
“The skills of our chemical tanker drivers make Highway Transport drivers stand out among drivers in the trucking industry. Pittsburgh workers stand out above other areas of the country.”
