🚛 Unlocking Big Wins for Small Fleets with Double Nickel 📲 Fleets with fewer than 50 trucks often tell us they don’t have enough hiring volume to benefit from a recruiting solution. However, the smaller the fleet the thinner office employees are spread — making a recruiting & compliance platform even more valuable. Hear it firsthand from Brandi Noyce, HR Manager at ABL Trucking (25 trucks). By consolidating multiple platforms into one, Brandi saved hours of manual work, streamlined hiring, and improved the driver experience. The best part? Drivers now complete full applications before she even makes the first call, reducing time to fill & improving conversion! 💡 For small to mid-size carriers, digitizing the recruitment process can be a game changer, freeing up valuable time for staff and allowing them to compete with larger carriers for driving talent.

🚛 American Transportation Research Institute 2024 Top Trucking Issues Report is Out! 🚛 For the first time in over a decade, the Driver Shortage has dropped to 9th place on the list of industry concerns. This is a dramatic shift from its long-standing position at the top. But what does this mean? 🤔 Is the driver shortage finally being addressed and on its way to becoming a thing of the past? Or is this just a temporary reprieve, driven by the current freight recession, with a likely rebound when the market stabilizes? What are your thoughts? #TruckingIndustry #DriverRecruitment #Transportation #FreightRecession #TopIssues

Surge in US - Mexico Trade Continues to Surge, Putting Pressure on Mexico's Driver Market According to FreightWaves, in August trade between the U.S. and Mexico grew to $74 billion—up 4% from 2023. Laredo kept the top spot as the main entry point for imports, underscoring the critical importance of truck transportation for cross-border trade. However, signs of driver shortages in Mexico continue to manifest, and this issue is likely to tighten further. As Jordan Dewart of Redwood Logistics noted: “𝘐𝘵’𝘴 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘶𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘥𝘪𝘧𝘧𝘪𝘤𝘶𝘭𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘥 𝘳𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘥𝘳𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘴 𝘪𝘯 𝘔𝘦𝘹𝘪𝘤𝘰 𝘥𝘶𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘧𝘵 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘷𝘪𝘰𝘭𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘰𝘯 𝘩𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘸𝘢𝘺𝘴, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘺 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘱𝘢𝘯𝘪𝘦𝘴 𝘯𝘰𝘸 𝘰𝘯𝘭𝘺 𝘥𝘳𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘥𝘶𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘥𝘢𝘺𝘭𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘴, 𝘪𝘮𝘱𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘦𝘧𝘧𝘪𝘤𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘺.” In this context, putting in place an efficient hiring process is an imperative. At Double Nickel, we are proud to be the only comprehensive solution designed to support cross border carriers, helping them streamline recruiting and compliance processes on both sides of the border.
