Dozens of truck drivers will be laid off by the end of the month as an Indiana-based trucking company will be shutting down for good.

Anderson, Indiana-based trucking company A.L.A. Trucking Inc. is closing down for good, according to company’s owner Alan P. Adams, who reached out to CDLLife via email.

Adams says that 41 truck drivers and 15 other employees will be laid off due to the closure, which will be effective as of June 26.

A.L.A. Trucking specialized in hauling retail and automotive freight throughout the mid-west.

The company was founded in 1988.
