Here’s what Texhad to say:

<em>It takes quality, professional people to do this.</em>

<em>Our professional drivers and support personnel live eat and breathe this job. They love big loads. They get to tackle new challenges every day. It’s never boring.</em>

<em>No two loads are alike. No two runs are the same. It’s all about planning and execution.</em>

<em>Our first priority in moving big loads is public safety. Our second is successful, on-time delivery. These are the priorities and responsibilities of all serious transportation professionals. It's no different for airline pilots, ship captains or train engineers. </em>

<em>Our drivers know: Everything ultimately rests with them.</em>[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type="in_container" full_screen_row_position="middle" bg_image="2926" bg_position="left top" bg_repeat="no-repeat" scene_position="center" text_color="dark" text_align="center" top_padding="10%" bottom_padding="10%" overlay_strength="0.3" shape_divider_position="bottom" shape_type=""][vc_column column_padding="no-extra-padding" column_padding_position="all" background_color_opacity="1" background_hover_color_opacity="1" column_shadow="none" column_border_radius="none" width="1/1" tablet_text_alignment="default" phone_text_alignment="default" column_border_width="none" column_border_style="solid"][vc_column_text]
