in the Transportation Industry

Not interested in driving? There are plenty of great jobs in the transportation industry that might be better suited for you! The industry is a welcoming one that needs employees now more than ever! Careers include diesel mechanics, dispatchers, human resources personnel, custodians, shipping and receiving workers, warehouse staff, and many more! If you are interested in being an owner or operator, you will need to determine what type of cargo you want to haul and what infrastructure you will need to run your own business.

If you are a shipper or a receiver, how can you give drivers a better experience?

  • Remember that the drivers are people who:
    • Need places to eat, shower, and use the restroom
    • Need access to places to sleep
    • Are on a tight schedule
  • Provide a clean environment for drivers.
  • Have clear signage in and around the shipping and receiving areas to inform drivers of where they are supposed to fuel, park, and turn in paperwork.
