National Truck Driver Appreciation Week: Celebrating America’s 3.6 Million Truckers

September 14-20, 2025
JX Truck Center is celebrating all that America’s truck drivers do to keep our nation moving. Each year, our truckers drive nearly 330 billion miles – the equivalent of 1,800 trips to the sun! Every one of those miles represents a stocked store shelf, a package placed on a household doorstep, raw materials delivered to a manufacturer, and equipment transported to a construction site. Join in celebrating the hard work and dedication our truckers put in daily!
Showcasing Appreciation for Truck Drivers
Stop in at a participating JX Truck Center near you to grab a complimentary coffee, snack, and drink, or maybe some JX swag! Our teams are waiting to meet and deliver a personal thank you to our road warriors.
The Importance of Truck Drivers
- 11 Billion Tons Hauled Annually: You read that right – billions with a B! This accounts for 73% of total US freight tonnage
- Feeding America’s Livelihood: About 8.4 million jobs are directly related to trucking activity, and nearly every object you use daily has been transported by a truck at some point
- Disaster Relief Heroes: Trucking is one of the only forms of transportation with the means to navigate the challenges of providing relief in times of disaster, resulting in truckers often being among the first on the scene to provide help
