True Value Co., a retailer-owned wholesale hardware cooperative, is transforming its fleet of leased and company-owned vehicles to now include professional drivers, routing and scheduling services provided under a Ryder Dedicated Transportation Solutions (DTS) agreement, Ryder System said.
Under the agreement, Ryder has already started to manage the transportation services at 10 of the 12 True Value distribution centers throughout the United States.
The acute driver shortage made it increasingly challenging for True Value to recruit its own drivers, however Ryder is providing the company with access to professional drivers, specialized vehicles and maintenance under the DTS agreement.
“With Ryder, True Value has access to more productivity tools such as optimization software and tracking/tracing technology, all of which aid True Value in developing new strategic initiatives,” Ryder said.
