Trucking Association of New York

What Trucking Association of New York does

Trucking Association of New York (TANY), legally the New York State Motor Truck Association, is a 501(c)(6) nonprofit trade association founded in 1932 and headquartered at 3 Corporate Drive, Suite 101, Clifton Park, NY. TANY is the recognized industry advocate for motor carriers operating in New York State, serving over 550 member companies ranging from single-truck owner-operators to national carriers (UPS, FedEx, XPO Logistics, Old Dominion, Walmart Supply Chain), as well as industry service providers (insurance, legal, safety supplies, technology). The association is the New York State affiliate of the American Trucking Associations (ATA) and maintains five regional chapters (Metro, Eastern, Central, Genesee, Western).

TANY's core offerings center on tiered annual membership (dues from $120 for a single power unit up to $4,740 for carriers with 701+ power units, plus separate tiers for out-of-state carriers and service providers) that unlocks safety and compliance assistance, workforce development programs (ELDT training via 160 Driving Academy, The CDL Schools, and Nebraska Trucking Association partnerships), affinity partner discounts (UPS shipping, BestPass toll management, J.J. Keller compliance products, Keevily workers' comp), advocacy representation, and access to the Trucking Interchange member community and Atlas member portal. Annual events include Safe-T Symposium, NYS Truck Driving Championships, SuperTech Competition, and the Annual Management Conference; award programs recognize fleet safety, drivers, and technicians.

Revenue is generated primarily through membership dues, event registrations and sponsorships, training program fees, affinity partner referral economics, the TANY Store, and the TANY Services Bureau (which handles 6-year plates, titles, trailer registrations, and DMV services for members). The association is governed by an all-volunteer board of directors drawn from member companies and led by President Kendra Hems (a registered lobbyist), Vice President Kate Kennett, and VP of Government Affairs Zach Miller. TANY's competitive position rests on its nearly century-long regulatory relationships at the NY State Capitol and NYC Hall, its ATA affiliation, and its tangible legislative wins on behalf of members.
