Sean, who was recognized as J.B. Hunt Contractor of the Year, says that having technology like the DRIVE App helps him run his business the way he wants.
“The best part about the DRIVE App to me is that I’m able to communicate with my [coordinator],” he said. “Being able to use the DRIVE App to plan my loads throughout the week and being able to actually use some of the resources that the driver app has.”
For Joseph, being able to easily access real people at J.B. Hunt gives him a sense of community while he’s out on the road.
“If there’s an issue, there’s a department we can reach out to,” he said. “So, you have an umbrella of people who are there. Outside of paying for insurance, the insurance is the company itself, because they want to see you succeed.”
