Professional Truck Route Planners

Now that's something you don't hear everyday! What is a professional truck route planner? Well, it is someone who specializes in giving truck drivers customized truck routes so the drivers don't have to go through all that hassle. They have a lot to deal with and a truck route planner is there to help. The need to find good truck directions is on going, and so many companies have tried to give truck drivers what they need. So far, companies have given drivers technology that leaves them hanging. Professional truck route planners go the extra mile. They look for the fastest and safest routes and they also locate all the truck stops so there is no guess work for the driver. The planners go state by state to route out each trip, looking for low clearances, width requirements, and restricted routes so they can keep the truck drivers off of these roads. They then start routing the trip from point a to point b, carefully considering fuel costs and other important factors that truck drivers need to deal with. The planners do not give out of route miles unless it is an absolute emergency and there is no other way around it. Drivers don't need any extra costs eating into their profit. It takes an average of fifteen to twenty minutes to plan out a trip and sometimes even longer. In reality, that is time taken away from a truck driver to get to their destination, and if the driver is late, their pay is docked. And what about eating or even taking a shower? These drivers live out on the road bringing America almost everything we need to live and they deserve the best directions possible. That is why the planners are more than happy to help truck drivers find their truck route. I know that truck drivers have dispatch, but sometimes it takes dispatch a long time to get back to the driver for directions. When dispatch finally does get back to the driver, it is usually directions from the internet that is meant for cars, not trucks. Trucks need the best truck routes and truck route planners know that. The planners take the time to look at the maps and get directions that the drivers need. I have heard to many times of drivers getting tickets for being on the wrong roads and getting a ticket and dispatch tells the driver that they were only suggestions. That is wrong. Truck drivers deserve respect and the planners help the driver stay off restricted routes so they don't get a ticket.
