One of the nation’s premier carriers is working to bring truckers closer to their families this Christmas by providing drivers with unlimited data and new iPads for both work and play.
For many years, Illinois-headquartered trucking company GP Transco has garnered a reputation for leveraging technology to make life on the road a little bit easier for their professional driving team.
This year’s Christmas was no exception as GP Transco treated drivers to a surprise double gift for the holiday — all new iPads with unlimited data and 30GB of hotspot data for personal use.
Drivers who spend days out on the road away from their families and friends can often feel isolated, bored, and out-of-touch with the rest of the world. But by offering unlimited data that can be used on the new iPad Mini Gen 7 tablets, along with the free hotspot data, drivers can have a more efficient and productive driving day capped off by a relaxing and rewarding off-duty period.
The GP Transco driver data plan is designed to help trucking families stay in touch. Free unlimited data for each driver means that FaceTime calls with spouses, parents, and kids can go on for hours. The driver data plan also provides drivers with more opportunities for connection through sports, entertainment, and gaming. Drivers can use the data plan to follow their favorite teams in the NFL playoffs and keep up with the latest twists and turns on their favorite TV shows. And the free driver data plan ensures that gamers can connect with friends for hours of play on their PS5 or Xbox device without worrying about overages.
GP Transco company leadership says that the unlimited data idea came from the drivers themselves. By conducting extensive driver satisfaction surveys, they identified issues with access to in-cab data as a problem that they could definitively solve for their driving team. They say it’s a win-win solution to make drivers happier while also increasing overall operational efficiency.
By implementing a driver-first company culture, providing industry-leading driver pay and benefits, and utilizing newer equipment and modern technology solutions, GP Transco has established itself as a sought-after career destination for truck drivers.
Founded in 2006, GP Transco is an award-winning dry van carrier that has grown to a fleet of over 550 trucks and 1,200 trailers, providing services to customers throughout the U.S. and Canada. If you’re interested in joining the GP Transco driving team, please click here to get started.
