Truck drivers are the backbone of our economy. They ensure the delivery of goods that keep businesses running and households stocked. As we go about our daily lives, it’s easy to forget the effort and hard work these professionals put in every day. This week, from September 15-21, 2024, we’re excited to celebrate all truck drivers for National Truck Driver Appreciation Week (NTDAW) honoring the 3.5 million drivers who work tirelessly to deliver safely and on time.
Truckers face long hours, tough weather, and the responsibility of keeping the highways safe while delivering vital resources that power our lives. This appreciation goes beyond a mere “thank you;” it is a recognition of the essential work they do. From coast to coast, the celebrations during NTDAW provide an opportunity to express gratitude for their hard work and dedication.
At GSC, we work with carriers and owner operators to ensure we’re able to deliver certainty for our clients, and we are so appreciative of our carriers. We pride ourselves on the long-standing relationships with our carriers, many of whom we’ve worked with for over 15 years. We celebrate our carriers every week by hosting an appreciation event with breakfast, open dialogue to stay in tune with carrier feedback and more.
During National Truck Driver Appreciation Week, we always like to go above and beyond with a lot of food, great conversations, and raffle prizes. We always strive to show the carriers we work with our dedication to improving their experience with GSC and appreciation for the demanding work they do.
Join us in acknowledging the impact of our carriers, and truck drivers everywhere, every day, especially this week. Whether you are a part of the logistics industry or just benefiting from the goods they transport, take a moment to show your support!
