Budd Van Lines nearly doubles driver productivity
Summary
Budd found a partner in Kentucky Trailer willing to roll the dice in what at the time was a wild idea: essentially an articulated intermodal container-like system the company called Load It Once. Grund said the rear box trailer can be disengaged from the truck, allowing Budd to more efficiently operate shuttle services in locations when getting the full rig to the home is impossible. Our drivers are typically renting U-Haul, and they may have to transfer the goods from the house to the trailer parked a hundred yards away or up to a mile away depending where they are," he said. Because drivers are also responsible for moving and handling the furniture, the amount of on-duty not driving time Budd Van Lines has saved, Grund said, is exponential. So the family is going to get to know the driver in California, hes going to haul across the country, and then he sees the same people at his destination, and he was the one responsible for handling all the goods so he knows where everything goes," he added.
