About Oway

Oway is popularizing a completely new way to affordably ship up to 8 pallets across long distances, cutting out warehousing transfers along the way. It's a huge problem - almost half of all truck space goes unused in the $900B+ US trucking industry, while small businesses are forced to pay high freight cost simply due to their low volume.

We are constantly looking for the brightest up-and-coming problem solvers for our team to help tackle one of the country's largest problems. Oway is an extremely collaborative environment, and our goal is to make solving this problem fun while also performing at our best.
