How do we do it? How do we live our lives and care for our friends and families without truck drivers? Quite simply, we cannot and do not. Nearly every part of our daily lives is made possible because the men and women of the trucking industry deliver the resources that we all need. Never have we felt this more than in the last 18 months. It is supply and demand. When we are in short supply, our nation demands their dedication. When drivers are in short supply, we demand more from the ones we are fortunate to have. They are the heroes on America’s highways. Throughout the biggest year in the history of our company and continuing in a year that appears to be even better than last, our Harrell’s hauling professionals drive on.

This year, our nation has set aside the week of September 12th – 18th to honor and champion professional truck drivers during National Truck Driver Appreciation Week. These 70 Harrell’s hauling professionals continue to go above and beyond with their time, effort, and dedication to make certain our customers have what they need when they need it. All their hard work comes while vigilantly following state and federal regulations, keeping their credentials up to date, and putting safety before everything else. The facts are hard to ignore. Each year, more than 3.5 million men and women in the trucking industry log hundreds of billions of miles, delivering over ten billion tons of freight to over three-quarters of our communities. Trucking means business and these dedicated men continue to deliver Harrell’s to America.

Our nation relies on truck drivers. Harrell’s relies heavily on these 70 men, THE BEST PROFESSIONAL DRIVERS IN THE INDUSTRY. We may not get to see them as often as we’d like to, as they are working hard to keep their distance. Constantly on the move, ensuring that you are stocked with all the product you need, right on time. That doesn’t mean they don’t appreciate your support and gratitude. As you read their names below, stop and take the time to reach out to them. Let them know we appreciate their sacrifice. Harrell’s is honored to recognize and thank the gentlemen listed below for their continued commitment to safety, to customer service, and to growing & delivering a better world. Thank you.
