Celebrating the Best in Trucking

Jul 17, 2024

Celebrating the Best in Trucking

I am excited to have a month where we celebrate the best in trucking. Often the news on the trucking industry is negative with crashes on the television, crime in the industry, and owner operators saying they’re not making any money. It can really bring a person down day after day. We do our part to get keep things positive but with such a large industry to the south of us and so many variations of success on the job positivity becomes a challenge. 

If you’ve ever worked for a private fleet it is quite a bit different from our for hire carriers. The focus isn’t on trucking and generally they can be a little more choosy when picking employees for their teams. In general they tend to pay a little more and have the backing of a corporation to outfit the fleet so the equipment is better. Their brand is the main focus of the business and is prominent in all the work they do. As someone who has worked for multiple private fleets in the past I can tell you it is the way to go from a driver standpoint. 

Lead Pedal Media recently covered the Private Motor Truck Council (PMTC) Annual Conference in Niagara Falls and of all the conferences I attend this is one of the best. The team at PMTC do an amazing job and are great to work with so that is easy from a media standpoint. Their presentations aren’t that much different than other conferences as far as speakers and content, but what really drives the conference are the awards and seeing people celebrated. In talking with many of the attendees often I will hear the Hall of Fame Awards are a favourite for them as well.

Hall of Fame Drivers

This month we showcase many of the people who were award winners in the industry from Hall of Fame Drivers to Dispatchers of the Year, and award winning safety personnel. We even celebrate the trucks. Isn’t it nice to see the positive and of course celebrating equipment through the many truck shows this year are one of the best things about Summer. 

So listen to the podcast this month to catch all the interviews with people young and old and help us celebrate their amazing achievements. Watch presentations on our YouTube channel and join in the fun. After this month you will see that we have great people in the industry and you will be glad to be a part of it. Talk to you soon.
