Ladies and Gentlemen:
Pursuant to Rule 477 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), USA Truck, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby requests the withdrawal, effective as of the date
hereof or as soon as practicable hereafter, of its Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-255901), as originally filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on May 7, 2021 (the “Registration Statement”). The
Registration Statement was declared effective on May 17, 2021.
On September 15, 2022, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of June 23, 2022 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Schenker, Inc., a New York corporation (“Parent”), and Tango Merger,
Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), the Company completed the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, and Merger Sub merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company
surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent. In connection with the Merger, the Company determined that it is in its best interest to withdraw the Registration Statement at this time.
The Company confirms that no securities were sold pursuant to the Registration Statement or the prospectus contained therein.
