The Responsible Care® organization recognizes partners with superb performance and safety records involved in the transportation of chemicals.

QDMSHighway Transport Vice President of Safety Rick Lusby says, “Throughout 2018, Highway Transport celebrated 70 years in business. During this special milestone we folded our Responsible Care® ethic into the celebration. All employees took a synchronized solemn moment to re-dedicate our lives to the guiding principles of Responsible Care®. A large poster-sized letter of commitment is on display at every Highway Transport facility. Employees gathered together at each facility to read it and sign it. Safety is the most important thing at Highway Transport.”
