  • What Can Be Written About the Challenges Facing the U.S. Trucking
    2008 TRUCKING PERSPECTIVES What can be written about the challenges facing the U.S. trucking industry that hasn’t already been chewed up and steamrolled over countless times? Rising fuel prices, green equipment mandates, shifting truckload (TL) and less-than-truckload (LTL) demands, mode competition, excessive capacity, and end-user demands have carriers checking their side-view mirrors for lost business, assets, and competitors discarded along the way. For an economy inherently tied to over-the-road commerce, these objects in the mirror are closer than they appear. Numerous failures, including Alvan Motor Freight and Jevic Transportation, have cast a pall over the trucking industry at large. But with time, distance, and perspective, carriers are managing these challenges and turning their attention to what lies ahead, chasing the tail lights of a sputtering economic engine that is showing signs of turning over. What hasn’t already terminally stalled truckers is making them leaner, greener, and better prepared for a return to normalcy. by Joseph O’Reilly September 2008 • Inbound Logistics Stateside shippers and consignees navigate a less FIGURE 1 Reported Increases in predictable and potentially ominous road.

    Food Bank of the Rockies 2009 Annual Report . r e g n u H g n i t h Feeding g i F Hope. ur 2008 - 2009 fiscal year marks 31 years helping to feed those in need in our service area. This year Owe saw a greater need than we've ever experienced. Our partner agencies - soup kitchens, pantries, shelters - reported substantial increases in the numbers of people they serve; many saw their demand double. More people sought food assistance due to the difficult economy. Many of those in need were asking for help for the first time. Folks like the electrician and his family, who moved to Denver, after the rural company where he worked for many years closed. He hoped the move would provide opportunities for employment. He struggled to find a job and his wife, who did find work as a cosmetologist, was diagnosed with breast cancer. With no insurance and little income, they found themselves suddenly homeless. He was staying at a men's shelter and his wife and kids were staying at another shelter. He commented, “I thought I did everything right. I worked hard, always provided for my family. We never needed help; in fact we helped others.
