How logistics companies are helping with Helene recovery; ports strike tomorrow | WHAT THE TRUCK?!?

On Episode 763 of WHAT THE TRUCK?!?, Dooner is talking to Operation Airdrop’s Ryan Spellman about how they’re flying in aid to those impacted by Hurricane Helene. Operation Airdrop uses volunteer pilots to deliver critical supplies. With I-40 and parts of I-26 shut down, their work is more crucial than ever.

With just hours to go before ports from Maine to Texas go on strike, we’ll take a look at how shippers and logistics firms are bracing themselves for impact. On Sunday, President Joe Biden reiterated that he would not invoke Taft-Hartley while the International Longshoremen’s Association has voted to strike. How long will it last and how will supply chains get hit? We’ll find out from OEC Group’s Joseph Firrincieli.

J. J. Keller’s John Lovan clears up misconceptions around drug and alcohol testing regulations.

Multi Service Fuel Card’s Jessica Dotson talks about the fight against fuel fraud.


Plus, serial tire slasher strikes relief trucks; all modes of delivery used for hurricane relief; and more.
