Landstar News & Resources

At Landstar, we’ve built our Mutual Understanding of Safety Together (M.U.S.T.) program to ensure that safety isn’t a “one size fits all” solution. Instead, it’s a collaborative effort tailored to each customer’s unique needs.

Donations to the Landstar BCO Benevolence Fund hit a record high in 2024. Thank you to the Landstar BCOs, agents and employees who generously contributed more than $146,200 last year to the fund, which helps independent owner-operators in times of hardship or emergency.

BCO Stacie Simmons won a bright blue 2025 Kenworth T-680 last week at the 2024 Landstar BCO Appreciation Days event in Durant, Oklahoma. 

Every year, Landstar hosts its BCO Appreciation Days when the entire network makes an extra special effort to show business capacity owners (BCOs) just how much their dedication to safety and service excellence means to Landstar employees, agents and customers.

The annual BCO Appreciation Days event is two days of networking opportunities, educational presentations, safety meetings, prizes and a vendor expo, where BCOs can talk to companies that offer different services as part of LCAPP – Landstar Contractors’ Advantage Purchasing Program.

Landstar presented its BCO Lifetime Achievement Award to Landstar Three Million Mile Safe Driver and Landstar Roadstar recipient Duane Vorst earlier this month at the 2024 Landstar BCO All-Star Celebration. 

Landstar inducted the newest class of Million Mile Safe Drivers and Roadstar® honorees at the 2024 All-Star Celebration.

At Landstar, there’s a team of friendly, helpful and experienced professionals dedicated to helping independent business capacity owners (BCOs) succeed. They’re called BCO advisors, and every BCO leased to Landstar can call on an advisor for a truckload of information and resources.

Landstar honored the best and safest independent owner-operators earlier this month at the 2023 Landstar BCO All-Star Celebration.
