Lets look at the most basic service – you have less than a truckload and you just need it delivered. The product could move on a LAWRENCE for-hire truck, or it could be handled by our brokerage operation. A non-asset freight broker could handle it but we have better ways to get the job done. The range of options LAWRENCE provides includes contract carriage, truckload, less-than-truckload and agency agreements. We specialize in multi-stop regional operations but also can handle dedicated operations for fleets traveling through out the United States. If truck ownership is better than leasing or dedicated carriage, we can handle the difficult details. We provide as many services, or as few, as you really need to outsource.

Trucker Tip Thursday!

Did you know proper tire inflation extends a tire life and improves fuel economy? It’s always important to check your tire pressure before and after trips, but with it getting hot outside, checking after your tires have been sitting on hot asphalt is key!

Always follow the manufacturer’s pressure and load recommendations as most blowouts happen because tires were underinflated. On the other hand, overinflation reduces traction and makes tires more prone to impact damage.

Trucker Tip Thursday!

During last year’s Road Check, falsification of record of duty status was the second most-cited driver violation, at 58,382 violations. Five out of the top 10 driver violations were related to hours of service or ELDs. Reminder to always certify your logs and put into the correct status along with notes in logs for things like “Getting fuel” and “Unloading”. Make sure you have properly reflected on-duty, not driving time. Hours of service regulations include pre and post-trips, loading and unloading, fueling, etc. as work functions.

Trucker Tip Thursday!

Tarping can be dangerous if done incorrectly. Make sure to tarp in a covered area, and be aware of wind conditions. When checking a load or retarping on your route, do not stop on the side of the road. You should avoid climbing your trailer if you don’t have a trailer safety ladder available. Key techniques include starting from the front, keeping flaps on the outside, and using corner protectors to prevent tears. Always prioritize safety by using a ladder and wearing non-skid boots.
