Yet another trucking company shuts down with no notice to drivers

HVH Transportation abruptly shuts down, leaving 300 truckers out of work

Denver, Colorado-based HVH Transportation has reportedly shut down, leaving more than 300 truck drivers out of work.

The first public report appeared early Tuesday evening on the CDLLife app (a social community and free navigation app for truck drivers), where an HVH driver stated that he was notified of the immediate shutdown by a company dispatcher.

According to the driver, the company abruptly “shut off all their fuel cards,” effectively leaving drivers stranded on the road. Other drivers have reported that their fuel cards are still working, however.

I seem to recall stories late last year and early this year that trucking companies were having problems filling driver positions. Looks like that won't be an issue much longer.
