Infographic: Truck Drivers And The Truth About Christmas

Published:

Each year, truck drivers transport millions of toys, electronics and gifts across the country, spreading Christmas joy and cheer.  Sure, Santa deserves some of the credit, but truck drivers are the true Christmas heroes.

Many Christmas shoppers don’t stop to ponder who all those gifts made it to the selves or to their door.  As the old saying goes, “If you got it, a truck brought it.”  This saying couldn’t be more true.

As we celebrate this Christmas season, it’s important to remember those who make it possible.  Christmas dinner, trees, decorations and gifts wouldn’t be possible without truck drivers.

Did you know:

On December 20th, 28 million Christmas packages will be delivered around the world– that’s 300 packages every second!

An estimated 527 million packages will be delivered between Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Behind every package, is a truck driver who made it happen.

Thank you, drivers, for making our Christmas merry!
