History
Everett Roehl started Roehl Transport in 1962 with a single truck. The company provides on the job training to recent CDL school graduates and has done so since the late 1980s. The Roehl Transport CDL School was a certified truck driving school located next to Roehl Transport that has since become the Get Your CDL Program. In 2015, Roehl became the first major carrier to hire, train and pay CDL candidates as employees in the Get Your CDL Program.
In 2013, the company partnered with GAIN Clean Fuels to open a compressed natural gas station in Gary, Indiana. The CNG station is one of the largest in the Midwest.
The company is led by CEO Rick Roehl. Rick maintains his CDL and still delivers loads to customers as a way to stay close to the work of truck drivers. He is the only CEO of a major trucking company to do this.
