When shoppers are out in the retail stores, it’s doubtful that they wonder how all of the products that they see got there. Being in the transportation industry, we know that all of those goods were transported there from factories and warehouses, and trucks continue to be the most widely used form of delivery to transport those products.
Never mind just the products that are seen in stores, but look at all of the materials used to build the store itself, or the mall that the store is located in, and even the home you live in or the building that you work in…. none of that would be there if not for the trucks that were instrumental in delivering all of the required building materials during the construction of those properties.
Without the existence of the truck driving industry to deliver an immeasurable range of goods and materials, modern development would not be where it is today.
