2022 Team Driver Base Pay Announcement
On top of the significant driver pay increases to our West Coast Service-Region pay for the 2022 Summer Peak Season, we are also making changes to our Team Driver Base Pay Rates. All of this is in addition to the 2022 Stop Pay and Detention Pay increases for Solo and Teams.
2022 West Coast Summer Peak Season Service-Region Pay Announcement
We have significantly increased our West Coast Service-Region driver pay for the 2022 Summer Peak Season. The Summer season is our busiest time of every year with higher customer freight demand levels and increased volumes. Peak Season is relatively short and runs through seasonal produce demand each year during Summer month(s).
SmartWay Excellence Award 2021
We’re very excited to announce that Van Eerden Trucking has been awarded the EPA’s prestigious SmartWay Excellence Award for 2021! This isn’t the first time we’ve been the recipient of this award, but each time we do, it becomes more meaningful as it reinforces that our own emissions standards and quality expectations continue to align with the EPA’s highest environmental performance standards.
Announcing Our Driver Recognition Program
As a show of our appreciation and in recognition, we’ve established a Driver Recognition Program to showcase the years of service that so many of our drivers have provided. We are very fortunate to have so many drivers with multiple years of service levels ranging up to and even exceeding 30 years with our company!
Ronald McDonald House of Western Michigan
For Christmas this year the company has focused on helping the Ronald McDonald House of Western Michigan. It’s a great organization that houses, feeds and supports families when their children come to Grand Rapids for critical medical care.
2021 National Truck Driver Appreciation Week
National Truck Driver Appreciation Week is a great opportunity for us to show how much we appreciate our drivers. You all spend a lot of time on the road, many of those days without family and friends. And we’re thankful for the work you do.
