Barr-Nunn Drivers Safely Go Beyond the Million Mile Mark.

Granger, IA – June XX, 2010 – Barr-Nunn Transportation announced today that
four of its experienced drivers have safely driven more than one million miles for the company, with driver Michael "Winn" Holt reaching the two million mile mark last month. Drivers James Settle, Curtis Reynolds and Harry Campbell all reached the 1.5 million mile mark with the carrier.

Holt was extremely excited about reaching the two million mile mark after 17 years with the company. "I was so happy about it, I knew I was getting close."

"It is quite an accomplishment for a driver to reach that many miles safely and without an accident," says Campbell. "Barr-Nunn is a really good company, they really try to keep us loaded and we’re with them for so long that they just keep us running because they know we will get the job done for them."

A Barr-Nunn driver for the last 10 years, Reynolds says that he feels lucky that he reached the milestone without an incident. "I think there’s is a great degree of luck involved in this because there seems to be plenty of opportunities where it could have all gone South," he adds. He says the achievement was a real celebration for him.

"I feel great about this. It's something that I really set out to do and didn't think I ever would get it done," says driver James Settle. "Safety should be an aspect more drivers concentrate on. Barr Nunn is great company to work for, I've worked here almost 17 years and I believe by staying around for this long it proves that there is something here."

Priding itself on its safety record, Barr-Nunn is regarded as one of the country's best-managed truckload carriers. The company has a reputation for respecting its drivers, working diligently to anticipate and meet their needs, and for its outstanding benefits and pay packages.
