KLLM Transport Services and Pride Transport joined the surge of trucking companies set to raise driver pay.
Pride Transport increased driver pay by 4 cents per mile Dec. 1.
KLLM announced the same day that it is rolling out one of the largest driver pay increases in company history over the coming weeks.
“The resolve and determination of our KLLM company drivers and independent contractors throughout the last year has been remarkable,” President Jim Richards said in a statement. “They have kept America moving throughout the ongoing COVID-19 crisis by keeping food and pharmaceuticals stocked and on the shelves despite unprecedented challenges.”
