The Truckload Carriers Association's 2026 Annual Convention culminated with the announcement of the 2025 TCA Fleet Safety Awards Grand Prize. The contest is made possible by Sponsors, Great West Casualty Company, and Gallagher.
The Grand Prize was awarded to Mill Creek Motor Freight out of Ayr, Ontario, Canada, in the small carrier division (total annual mileage of less than 25 million) and Bison Transport out of Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada in the large carrier division (total annual mileage of 25 million or more). Both carriers demonstrated exceptional safety programs and impressive accident frequency ratios over the last year, according to a statement from TCA.
“Great West Casualty Company is proud to support the TCA Fleet Safety Awards and recognize carriers that set the standard for safety excellence across our industry,” said Steve Ponder, Senior Vice President, Great West Casualty Company. “Mill Creek Motor Freight and Bison Transport exemplify the commitment, accountability, and leadership it takes to keep our roads safer for everyone.”
“Gallagher is honored to partner with TCA in celebrating fleets that prioritize safety at every level of their operations,” said Andy Engardio, Transportation Vertical Leader, Gallagher. “These Grand Prize winners demonstrate that strong safety cultures not only protect drivers and the public, but also strengthen the entire trucking industry.”
Both companies, as well as all carriers that placed in the top three of their mileage-based divisions, will be recognized again during TCA’s 2026 Safety & Security Meeting, to be held June 7-9 in Oklahoma City.
