Also, if I can give a driver a ride all the way to my home (Columbia, KY), I will take him/her anywhere within 100 miles in my personal vehicle on my dime. Won't cost them anything.

I was heading back to Denver from Billings when I heard this Tuesday, was watching for Arrow trucks in Casper, Cheyenne, etc. on the way back. There was one in Cheyenne at Flying J but he already had something worked out.

This far north and west didn't see a lot of Arrow trucks. I haven't been able to find any around here. Local KW dealer said they are only getting two trucks turned in here that they know of.
Total of 50 for the MHC KW family of dealers.GuysLady Thanks this. -
I contacted the John & Jeff show which is on the air from 1am to 5am eastern. They're on 101.1FM here in my area and other stations across the country. They are asking people to help the drivers anyway they can.
I really think due to the tremendous response from Truckers and the public that we have gotten most of these drivers home.teddy_bear6506, Texas-Nana and 48Packard Thank this. -
To see the compassion of drivers offering help to all the displaced Arrow drivers shows me, as it should others, that when faced with adversity, the company you drive for doesn't matter. What is most important is helping one another. This is an awesome show of teamwork. It shows once again that there are many who don't know what a special breed truck drivers are.
My thoughts and prayers go out to all the Arrow drivers facing the uncertainty of what the future will bring. I wish each of you the best Christmas possible in these trying times.
To all who have offered assistance or wishes to help, you are special and may be the guardian angel needed to get these drivers home.
GuysLady, SweetSouthernRide, otherhalftw and 2 others Thank this. -
Post here. I'll check back tonight, see what I can put together.
At the very least I think I can get you a hot meal. -
I'm home near the Greenville/Spartanburg area of SC...I'm available as well for transportation in my personal vehicle. I'll be home until Saturday night.
I just hate that this happened in this fashion at this time of year...really stinks to high heaven.GuysLady Thanks this. -
If there are any Arrow drivers stranded in the St Joseph MO or Kansas City MO area, please contact me here or at teddy_bear6506@yahoo.com and I have an extra room, and plenty of food.
Also, if I can help in any way to shuttle you from this area to another, I would be more than happy to do so. On the Facebook group, many who have nothing to do with trucking are offering shuttle services. While many of us may not be directly involved with the trucking industry, we would still like to help in any way possible. Many of us are without jobs, also, and we would like to repay a kindness given to us, by passing it on to others.
Also, if any of you need a place to store anything, I have plenty of room to store your stuff until you can pick it up or have it shipped.
