Another sad day in the trucking industry has dawned. I hope the people that worked there are able to transition to somewhere else without too much hardship, just losing a job in this situation is hard enough.

dang...that sucks

The worst part of this is that the "president" is still saying that we are not in a recession and that everything is good
Yet here goes another large company under because of policies that he has adopted .... how many more need to go under before this government does something for the american truckers
-
The latest figures do not show our country to be in recession. To be in a recession you must have four (4) months of straight down turn, we have not even had two (2) months in a row of down turn ... Now, why would you want government to interfere with your life and " do something for the American trucker " ? We need less government not more ! Jevic going under is a very sad event brought about by many things including (but not limited to) high insurance and fuel. Jevic is not the first carrier to go under and they will not be the last. -
Well Folks, It is OFFICIAL.. Jevic CLOSED it's doors today. It wiil honor immediate commitments only.. My friend is on her way back from cal. with a load to Chi town.. Unfortunately she lives in Cincy... she has to make her own way back from Chitown to Cincy.. Coulda been worse I reckon.. They coulda told her to find her own way back from Cal. Jevic says they will honor and pay all drivers what they have comin... and they want some to hang on till the end.. Personnaly, I think I would head over to New Century.. And the OLD OWNER of JEVIC>>LOL Ya'll drive safe and don't let em get ya down..

Ya'll take care now...ya hear?? -
Sorry, didn't mean to turn this political.
This is the result of a free economy. Businesses will come and go, it's the nature of the beast. This company probably could have been saved but it's new parent corp didn't want to deal with it. -
Sounds like there will be a flood of highly qualified and experienced drivers hitting the job market. I suspect many will try to get on with New Century or another reputable ltl carrier. Thats where the money is now a days. Jevic had some of the highest paid non-union drivers out there. This really stinks.
The owner ops will be scrambling for new homes as well I am sure. -
heard today JEVEC trucking is going out of business because it can no longer compete due to high fuel costs.anybody else hear this ? if so im afraid this is only the beginning
