YRC Guarantees Shipments Moving on its Innovative Preferred Pricing Program

Enhances predictability and reliability of customer supply chains

OVERLAND PARK, Kan., Oct. 8 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- YRC Inc., a subsidiary
of YRC Worldwide Inc. (Nasdaq: YRCW), announced today enhancements to its
innovative Preferred Pricing Program, established to provide customers with
simple, predictable and highly reliable solutions. Effective Oct. 1, 2009,
Preferred Pricing shipments can easily be guaranteed to insure the highest
reliability at no additional charge.

Although it is available to any customer, Preferred Pricing is designed to
help small- to mid-sized companies looking for a competitive and
easy-to-understand pricing program.

"We are committed to providing our customers with flexible, reliable solutions
that are also easy to engage. In response to customer need, our Preferred
Pricing program offers a simplified pricing option that removes much of the
complexity inherent in normal LTL pricing tariffs," said John Garcia,
executive vice president and chief sales officer - YRC Worldwide. "This
program helps improve our customers' transportation cost planning because it
is simple and predictable."

Highlights of the program include:

-- Reliable service backed by a money back guarantee
-- No special surcharges or exclusions for non-direct points
-- Exclusive fuel surcharge program that insulates shippers from rising
fuel prices until the National Diesel Price Index reaches $4.00 per
gallon
-- Many common accessorial services at no additional cost

-- Market competitive rates in all lanes across the YRC network, the most
comprehensive in North America

Preferred Pricing was piloted to YRC customers (formerly Yellow Transportation
and Roadway) in 2008. Based on that initial acceptance and success, YRC made
the decision to offer the program widely so that more companies could take
full advantage of the program benefits and now provides a full service
guarantee.

For additional information on the program or to sign up, please contact your
local YRC Worldwide representative or visit
