When it comes to keeping a modern truck fleet on the move, it takes a team of talented individuals with specialized skills. We understand the pivotal role that diesel mechanics play in the smooth operation of our business. That's why we ensure they're not just valued but consistently rewarded for their hard work and dedication.

As we celebrate Women's History Month, it's essential to recognize women's pivotal role in shaping the transportation industry for over 170 years. From the early trailblazers to today’s driving professionals, women have left an indelible mark on truck driving. We want to celebrate and uplift the accomplishments of female truck drivers – we wouldn’t be where we are today without your skill, passion, and perseverance.

With a focus on providing resources for our associates to succeed, we’re proud to offer them many different career opportunities, from over the road and local driving, to dock work and leadership. One of our most unique offerings is our production and event group, On Tour Logistics.

Valentine's Day is just around the corner, and while many people are planning romantic dinners or cozy evenings at home, professional drivers may find themselves navigating highways and byways and in need of unique ways to celebrate.

At the heart of our company-wide mission to help others succeed lies a commitment to our Averitt Charities program and two associate-led initiatives: Averitt Cares for Kids and the Team Up Community Challenge. These special programs are not just about corporate giving; they represent the collective force of our entire team making a tangible difference in the lives of children and communities at large.

In our unwavering pursuit of enhancing freight transportation and supply chain management, our mission has always been to redefine industry standards while remaining committed to the communities we serve. We are excited to share about the opening of our new distribution and fulfillment facility in Theodore, Alabama. This marks a significant step forward in our ongoing journey to further serve the needs of shippers in the Mobile Metropolitan Area and continue our presence in the Port City.

Our commitment to supporting veterans and active military service members is at the forefront of our values. We recently had the honor of participating in two remarkable community service projects, each designed to bring joy and appreciation to those who have selflessly served our country.

At Averitt, we have plenty to be proud of. As a leader in the truck driving industry for over 50 years, our team of talented associates has achieved many accomplishments. One of our core principles is believing that everyone belongs in the driver’s seat. We are committed to living that out by having an inclusive, diverse team of skilled and passionate associates. We are honored to have received 2023’s Top Company for Women to Work for in Transportation.
