WHAT IS IDLE FREE FOR OUR KIDS®?

Unnecessary idling of trucks and other commercial vehicles creates huge amounts of carbon emissions, as well as other pollution that harms our health and the environment we live in.

Vehicles with the IDLE FREE for our kids® logo are part of a fleet that cares about protecting people and the planet from this harm. 

Every IDLE FREE for our kids® fleet has been externally certified as meeting industry-leading standards for idle reduction.  Drivers in these fleets have been trained and tested on how to avoid unnecessary idling, and they receive annual refresher training and testing to help them maintain environmentally friendly driving habits. IDLE FREE for our kids® fleets must significantly reduce unnecessary idling in order to be certified, and they must maintain this idling performance each year to keep their certification. 

When you see the IDLE FREE for our kids® logo on a vehicle, you will know it is owned by an organization that is taking verified and measurable steps to help prevent pollution and protect our environment.
