This week is National Truck Driver Appreciation Week! As an industry leader, we know what it takes for  people to get what they need to manage their daily lives. Delivering goods to sustain individuals, communities, and businesses wouldn’t be possible without the millions of truck drivers on the road everyday.

We want to take the time to acknowledge and thank the millions of truck drivers who keep our supply chains running. Today, we’re spotlighting owner operator Chad Boblett — and his ride with DAT Freight & Analytics CEO Claude Pumilia.

Watch DAT Freight & Analytics CEO Claude Pumilia ride along with Chad.

What advice do you have for fellow truck drivers?

“If you’re out to go anywhere, and you’ll haul anything, then work off supply and demand. You’ll want to go where there is more freight than there are trucks.

Establishing relationships early on helps.”
