    Won't be of much value if the company has rules against it.

    concealed means concealed it should be on your hip when anyone would be searching your truck

    If the company policy says none allowed, then it cannot be on the hip.

    If the shipper has a policy of no firearms allowed and trucks will or can be searched, then on the hip will be of no value either.
