Supporting a cause is important — and we go the extra mile to do it.

We created our award-winning cause marketing campaign, #CauseContainer, to share something we’ve been passionate about since our inception — giving back. Since our custom-printed shipping containers hit the road in 2015, they’ve traveled countless miles, raising more than $675,000 for our nominated charities. 

Hub Group is dedicated to not only raising funds and awareness for these incredible charities, but also activating and inspiring our employees, customers and communities to stand up, and get involved.
