If your company operates its own fleet, chances are you’ve already felt the sting of rising liability insurance premiums. Over the last decade, transportation-related lawsuits have surged in size and frequency—especially “nuclear verdicts,” where jury awards exceed $10 million. These cases don’t just impact the companies directly involved, they drive up insurance rates across the board, making it harder for businesses of every size to stay protected without breaking the bank.

For companies trying to manage their own transportation operations, this creates a costly and dangerous risk. But with Aim’s Dedicated Contract Carriage solution, there’s a better way forward.

Arnold Comer has been driving with Aim for nearly nine years, currently supporting the Hydro account out of Gainesville, GA. Originally from Philadelphia, trucking is in his blood. “My dad drove for Greyhound, and I come from a long line of drivers,” Arnold said. “It just made sense for me to follow that path.”

Continuing its commitment to open communication, Aim Transportation Solutions held its fourth annual Aim Talks discussion, a virtual townhall-style event that builds on the company’s longstanding open-door policy. This forum gives Aim’s senior leaders the opportunity to share updates, address current priorities, spotlight future initiatives, and showcase the hard work and dedication of Aim’s employees across all departments.

As the summer season intensifies, so does the pressure on transportation and logistics networks across the country. Freight volumes increase, roadside breakdowns spike in the heat, and new vehicle lead times remain long. These challenges are pushing businesses to find quick, reliable solutions—and for many, that solution is Aim’s rental trucks and trailers.

In today’s fast-moving and unpredictable economic environment, companies that rely on transportation face constant pressure to do more with less—less capital, less risk and less downtime. With inflation still weighing on operational costs, looming tariffs increasing the price of new equipment and skilled diesel technicians in short supply, more businesses are rethinking how they manage their fleets. One increasingly strategic choice? Full-service truck leasing.

Owning trucks outright may seem like a way to save money. That is until unexpected repair bills, compliance issues or idle assets start to eat away at a company’s bottom line. Full-service leasing shifts that risk to your leasing partner, like Aim Transportation Solutions.
