How Have Truckers Become Unsung Heroes In Pandemic Times?

When The Going Gets Tough,
It’s The Truckers That Keep Going!!

The World Health Organization (WHO) declared COVID-19 as a pandemic on March 11, 2020. With more than 3.84 million confirmed deaths and counting around the world due to COVID-19, this virus has become one of the deadliest pandemics in history. The pandemic doesn’t seem to want to go away anytime soon.

This pandemic has given a significant jolt to the economy. Businesses took the heavy brunt as the supply-demand equation was altered negatively. The pandemic has more or less affected every sector of the economy resulting in catastrophic losses for more than a year. Amid the economic mayhem, the trucking industry has beared it all on their shoulders and relentlessly served humanity. The efforts of the trucking industry have gone unnoticed and unthanked most of the time.

Road Dogs Mobile Repair salutes the transport and logistics sector for their unconditional efforts to keep the economy from falling apart in these turbulent times. Road Dogs believes that the tremendous efforts and hard work showcased by truckers on a daily basis should be applauded and appreciated by all of us as truckers are the front line workers who reach out to us with our essentials.

The team at Road Dogs finds truckers to be the unsung heroes during the pandemic times for good reason. We continue to see truckers delivering goods and essentials with full zeal and determination amid the COVID-19 crisis wherever we go in the world.

Trucks of all sizes and varied configurations can be seen trucking across all countries around the globe. Trucking requires a high degree of skill as there is no room for error anytime before or anytime after the driver hits the road.

Road Dogs values truckers as the backbone of every nation’s economy as they deliver goods when we need them and to where we need them. Without them, the economy would go into a slump. Truck drivers are indeed the unsung heroes of the Supply Chain!

Trucking + Truckers = A Coordinated Supply Chain

Truck Drivers Keep The Economy Moving!

The trucking industry moves and delivers over 70% of goods across borders and inland markets. Road Dogs Mobile Repair Services applauds the current 3.5 million truck drivers in Canada because if they were to stop putting in their tremendous efforts, the nation’s economy would come to a screeching halt today.

Let’s get into some statistics to help us understand why we consider truckers to be just incredible:

• • Distance- They truck over 430 billion kilometres per year.
  • Cargo- They transport and deliver over 10 billion tons of goods per year.
  • Fuel Consumption- 54 billion gallons of fuel per year.

The numbers don’t lie and they are bound to grow exponentially to cater to the ever-increasing population growth. Equally growing goods consumption and increased demand from e-commerce and online shopping will only add to these numbers.

Road Dogs Mobile Repair understands that the smooth operation of any Supply Chain is only effective when at its core there is successful movement and delivery of goods from one place to another.

The best supply chain solutions shall falter if trucks and trailers are not repaired, maintained and serviced properly by certified technicians like the ones employed by Road Dogs Mobile Repair.

Truck Driving is Tough & You Need Road Dogs
