Hello,

We hope you’ve had a wonderful summer. National Wreaths Across America Day is fast approaching! With over 5,000 participating locations, there’s a lot of preparation to come.

We are ready to begin our new onboarding process! Returning and new Honor Fleet members alike must attend one of three, short webinars. In this webinar, you’ll learn more about the mission, your role, and logistics necessary for a successful season. Please select a webinar date and time below and register today!

Preliminary Load Confirmations (PLC) have been sent out. In order to keep the same load(s) from last year, you must email back to the signed PLC by September 8, or it will go on the open load list for other carriers to choose.

We’d like to remind you to whitelist us! Please add trucking@wreathsacrossamerica.org to your list of approved/trusted senders in your email. You may have to work with your company’s IT team to do so. Once whitelisted, our emails won’t end up in spam, so you won’t miss out on important updates as the season ramps up.

Should you need anything, the WAA Transportation Team is always here – don’t hesitate to reach out! Thank you for your continued support, flexibility and passion for the mission.

With gratitude,
WAA Transportation Team

Your Impact

Because of you, the mission moves forward. Hauling what is referred to as “a truckload of respect,” members of the Honor Fleet transport millions of sponsored veterans’ wreaths to locations all across the country. On National Wreaths Across America Day, these wreaths are laid on veterans’ graves.

When placing the wreath, volunteers say the name of the service member out loud, remembering and honoring their sacrifice. These wreaths could not reach their location to be placed without you!

 

Professional Driver Quick Facts

We’re looking forward to a successful season! Here are some quick facts for professional drivers and carriers to keep in mind:

  • In most cases, unless otherwise stated, all professional drivers participating should expect a multi-stop load when delivering veterans’ wreaths for WAA; on average, 8-12 stops.
  • Because sponsorships continue to come in right up to the last minute, final wreath counts are not available until the professional driver arrives for loading.
  • Load drops can be delivered on the route that best suits the professional driver!
  •  Don’t be surprised if volunteers at the location are full of gratitude and want to make a connection with you; YOU are valued by the local community!
