Verst Logistics to Celebrate National Truck Driver Appreciation Week

Written by Tom Morris | September 14, 2018

Truck drivers keep America moving. Without the men and women drivers here at Verst Logistics, we would not be able to expand and grow our business.

Here at Verst Logistics, we want to take time to pay respect to the millions of carriers and truck drivers who log countless hours to deliver freight in a timely and safe manner. 

The American Trucking Association has deemed Sept. 9th through the 15th as “National Truck Driver Appreciation Week”, where we and all the other trucking companies in the nation say “thank you” to over 3.5 million professional truck drivers.

The millions of professional truck drivers in our country move around 71 percent of the nation’s freight, and log around 450 billion miles every year!

These truck drivers are today's Road Warriors!

Remember to take some time in the coming week to say “thank you” to these hardworking and dedicated individuals who work around the clock to deliver all the goods we need to make our everyday lives function (we’re especially thankful for the coffee that gets delivered).
