An update from the Wreaths Across America organization.

Hello Michael,

 

We are less than 50 days away from National Wreaths Across America Day! Over 6,000 participating locations are getting ready. It’s not too late to join the Honor Fleet and haul a truckload of respect. You can view open lanes here, or reach out to the transportation team directly. If you’re already a part of the program, we appreciate your dedication and flexibility as the season begins.

 

What to expect in the next couple months:

  • You should have already scheduled your loading appointment. If you haven’t, please reach out as soon as possible.
  • Load Confirmations will start getting sent out the second week of November.
  • In December, prior to loading, keep monitoring your email in case there are changes to your Load Confirmation. We try to minimize last-minute changes; at times, we need to adjust a load to accommodate sponsorships.

 

Please add trucking@wreathsacrossamerica.org to your list of approved/trusted senders in your email. Once whitelisted, our emails won’t end up in spam, so you won’t miss out on important updates before and during season.

The WAA Transportation Team is here for you! Give us a call at 207-618-7530. Thank you for your continued support, flexibility and passion for the mission.

 

With gratitude,
WAA Transportation Team
