If you're a commercial truck owner-operator, you can save on fuel costs and increase your profits by purchasing a variety of technologies and upgrades for your truck.  As an added benefit, these upgrades reduce emissions and contribute to a healthy environment. 

However, many truckers lack the upfront capital needed to upgrade, as well as the strong credit history needed for a loan. ACCION New York and New Jersey has partnered with the SmartWay Transport Partnership to offer you:

• Fuel-saving and profit-increasing upgrades such as auxillary power units (APUs), low-rolling resistance tires and improved aerodynamics
• Flexible loans to finance the upgrades.  Because ACCION's loan requirements are more flexible than a traditional bank's, you can get a loan and build your credit history at the same time.
