National Truck Driver Appreciation Week is an important time for our industry. September 12-18 this year will once again give us the opportunity to reflect upon the essential role that America’s professional drivers hold in keeping the country’s economy moving. Driver Appreciation Week should also serve as a call to action for everyone involved in supporting the work of the men and women behind the wheel.

For professional drivers, Sept. 12-18 can serve as a time to reflect as well. During this Driver Appreciation Week, ES would like to invite you to consider the following questions:

• Do you feel appreciated and are you satisfied with where you are today?
• What are your goals within the industry? Are you a truck owner? Would you like to become a truck owner and start your own trucking business?
• Are you interested in buying a truck? Would you like access to best-in-class equipment options? Would you like access to market-rate financing through a loan program that places an emphasis on work history, trucking aptitude and your attitude?
• Would you like to save an average of $0.55 per gallon on diesel purchases at over 1,000 fueling locations nationwide?
• Would you like to receive a below-market hourly rate for repairs and significant discounts for PM’s and oil changes at major truck stop chains?
• Would you like access to National Account pricing on tires?
• As an owner-operator or fleet owner, would you like to gain access to affordable insurance rates including physical damage, non-trucking liability and occupational-accident coverages?
• Would you like be a part of a true community that offers comprehensive programs and full support that is focused on providing opportunities that allows community members to realize their new levels of success in trucking?

As you consider those questions, ES appreciates and understands that the road to profitability can be challenging for independent contract drivers, owner operators and small fleet owners. This is why ES has established proven programs that give you the tools you need to reduce costs and drive profits to your bottom line.

During this Driver Appreciation Week, ES would like to ask you to take a moment of appreciation for your career, what you have accomplished so far and where you would like to go on the road ahead in this industry.
