In this chapter it will be elaborated what influences the acceptance of sustainable freight transport strategies by LSPs. First, the relevant theoretical background will be presented in Subchapter 0 to explain the occurrence of sustainable freight transport acceptance based on behavioral theories. Afterwards, the determinants of sustainable freight transport which emerged from the data collection are described in Subchapter 5.2. Within the empirical investigation (in-depth interviews, online survey), five main determinants were identified which influence the acceptance of the above mentioned avoid, shift and improve strategies. These determinants are profitability, customer demand, availability of infrastructure, organizational efforts and legal framework. Theoretical support for these determinants comes from the technology acceptance model.
