Consolidated Chassis Management (CCM), a national chassis pool company, announced the successful rollout of its 12,000th refurbished chassis to the South Atlantic Chassis Pool (SACP), ahead of schedule.

This milestone marks the first phase of refurbished chassis deployment in the region, with the entire CCM fleet of nearly 45,000 units expected to be fully upgraded by the end of 2027.

“CCM is committed to enhancing SACP offerings, building a strong leadership team, and responding to evolving market demand,” said Paul Nazzaro, CEO of CCM. “Our mission is to deliver top-tier equipment, the right team, and the necessary infrastructure to motor carriers across the South Atlantic. With competitive pricing and a robust fleet, SACP meets the critical need for flexible, efficient supply chain solutions our customers are demanding.”

Through a robust refurbishing process and strategic investments in new chassis, CCM has invested millions of dollars to reduce the fleet’s average age, ensuring the safe and efficient transit of goods to their final destination.

The upgraded chassis include several key improvements designed to enhance the motor carrier experience, anti-lock brakes for safer operation, LED lights for increased visibility and longer lifespan, radial tires for extended wear and reduced fuel consumption and safer trip. These enhancements drive performance, safety, and cost-effectiveness, benefiting operators across the region.

CCM’s reinvestment in the SACP demonstrates its commitment to sustainability by reducing the need for new manufacturing. Through the refurbishment process, CCM employs environmentally friendly paint to ensure high-quality finishes with minimal environmental impact. Tire retreading has contributed to a 70 percent reduction in carbon footprint, and increased reliance on radial tires has extended wear, reduced tire changes, and lowered fuel consumption by 7-10 percent. Additionally, CCM’s recycling efforts, which include the reuse of metal rims and components, significantly reduce waste, while the company’s LED light conversion further reduces waste by offering a 50,000-hour lifespan compared to traditional incandescent lights.
