Central Region Driver of the Month-May 2013

Please join us in congratulating Larry Aldridge, our Central Region Driver of the Month.   Larry has been with J.B. Hunt for 9 years.




Larry is a honest and respectful driver, the kind that is rare to find and even harder to keep. Everyone who meets Larry is overwhelmed by his professional and caring attitude. A gentle giant is the way I would describe Larry, standing around 6 foot 6 inches tall, Larry is head and shoulders above the fleet both as a driver and a company man.

 
Larry recently was asked to assist JB Hunt and PPG in a trial period of Specialized Glass Runs. Larry was excited to help and was proud to be hand selected as the face of JB Hunt in this initial trial period. Larry was asked to haul an extremely specialized flat bed trailer with A-frame racks attached to the trailer. The racks would be loaded with sheets of glass and would need to be secured, protected, and tarped. This is no easy job, for even a seasoned driver the process can take anywhere from 4-6 hours to complete.
 
Larry stepped up to the plate and hit a home run on every run he has completed for the customer. Plant personnel and the PPG staff could not be happier with the driver JB Hunt chose to represent themselves. Larry has said "whatever it takes, whatever you need, I am willing to help", this attitude is rare and exactly what we need to satisfy our customers needs.
