“Twelve months ago, we were an over-the-road, regional carrier. Today, twenty percent of our fleet is on some type of dedicated tour, or scheduled freight,” commented Director of Recruiting Doug Albrecht. “As a result, our turnover has been reduced dramatically.”
Barr-Nunn has aggressively moved toward more dedicated tours to accommodate driver needs. These tours have weekly scheduled freight and offer our company driver and Owner Operators higher than industry standard pay and home time. “We are finding this type of system is what drivers want. They want to be paid well, know in advance what their next load is and they want quality home time with their families,” continued Albrecht. “Barr-Nunn is providing this and a whole lot more with our increased fleet size and low turnover proving it.”
Barr-Nunn is an Iowa based, family owned dry-van truckload carrier that operates approximately 700 units and 1,700 trailers. Barr-Nunn offers both company and owner operator driving opportunities. To find out more about Barr-Nunn call 888.999.7576.
