Founded in 1966, Crete Carrier Corporation, along with operating division Shaffer Trucking, a leading privately owned trucking company, should be making its drivers happy this holiday season with a pay raise.

Let’s get to the numbers: Crete and Shaffer national over-the-road drivers will receive a $.01 per practical mile increase in pay.

“We understand that benefits beyond the paycheck are equally important to drivers,” says says Tonn Ostergard, president and CEO of Crete Carrier. “Single drivers can receive full benefits for only $34 per week, and that includes health insurance. We consciously made the decision to provide great healthcare. Drivers also have an opportunity to participate in a company match 401(k) retirement program and are automatically enrolled to receive profit-sharing benefits. We want our drivers to know how much we appreciate them.”

Increasing pay is a reflection of the demand Crete and Shaffer are experiencing from customers. During the past four months, miles have been increasing month over month and year over year.
