Labour costs make up roughly 50% of a transportation companies total cost of operation. Coupled with a severly aging long haul driver pool ( the average age of a long haul driver will approach 50 by 2024) makes this an industry in dire need of change.
Sooner than we think,however, remote and driverless trucks are coming our way.
We were reminded of this recently when one of drivers met with Peter and Howard, owners of Sigma Intergrale while in California. (pictured in the photo, website www.sigmaintegrale.com)
The pictured truck is a fully functional remote controlled vehicle and has been tested on live roads throughout California.

When we looked into what Susila Dharma International does we were surprised by the scope of their efforts. I would urge everyone to take a look at their website as well www.susiladharma.org.
It surpirses me each time we are able to help out how much it does for our own staff, how they feel when they know they are making a difference. It's not only charity but good business!

When you get a chance to see volunteers in action it really reminds you how many great people there are in our community.
We were delighted to be able to donate the boxes needed and moving assistance during the holiday season.
Their work made such a difference to so many in need and I would urge you to look at their website to see if you could help as well.

Moving under any circumstances is stressful, but when you are uprooting yourself and your family and heading to another country, that stress is multiplied times 10.
You can ease a lot of that anxiety by ensuring that you select the mover who is best for you.
If your move is to another country, it is particularly important that you select a company such as Taylor International Moving that has experience in shipping goods across global entry points.
The best mover for you will also have established excellent relationships with points of contact along the way.
How will your goods be tracked?

The moving industry is not a commodity. It is not as simple as just ordering more trucks to fill the 100% increase in business that movers will experience during the months of June, July and August.
I thought I would share the 5 areas where the moving industry as a whole tends to "fall down" during these peak months and the issues that arise beacuse of it.
1)Taking On More Work Than They Can Do:
Many movers will look to do a move that they know they will have trouble handling but do so because it is priced so well. By ignoring their own capacity or the "black out" date of their respected Van Line, they will create an enviroment that is putting all of their clients at significant risk. Extremely long transit times and/or having an inexperienced crew handle the move will create service delivery issues to their clients. In other words, it's short term "greed" knowing that they have little hope of delivering what is promised.

Special thanks to our wonderful hosts and their families, to Chantal Kreviazuk and to all our generous supporters.
We hope that this event will have inspired you to continue support of our work, as it is only through the genorsity of people like you that we are able to reclaim childhood for so many vulnerable children in some of the most volatile areas of the world.

In todays uncertain times, the holiday season allows us to take a step back and really evaluate what is important in life.
As a wise man once said, on your death bed one never remembers how much money or material items acquired in life but only the thoughts of family, friends and loved ones.
With this in mind, our entire staff wish all of our customers, suppliers and friends a very happy holiday season and nothing but glad tidings in 2011!
