Meet Veronica Burgess 21 years old
I got started in high school. Was with a guy who’s family has a gravel truck company in the town of Russell, Ont. We ran old Macks, my first truck was an 1985 R model Mack Tri-axle dump truck. We did everything, hauled fertilizer, snow, aggregates all over the Ottawa and the capital region. Just last year I was offered a job all on my own driving my present truck 02 Volvo twin steer, 13 speed.
Mostly I haul Asphalt now, paving roads, parking lots and driveways. Just recently I’ve been hauling the tag-along float, chaining and moving our paver and skid-steer to all of our job sites !
I challenge you other Aggregate Haulers to post your picture and tell us how you got started – Veronica

Driver Training Program
Clarke Road Transport invests in the future of our industry. Working closely with three schools in the Maritime Provinces, we provide a six week on the job training program coupled with a six month mentorship program. We put two students per month through the program and have had fantastic results.
Not only has the newly designed program resulted in a higher student retention rate but it has also reduced the number of incidents and infractions from new drivers. The mentorship program is really making a difference to help new drivers become comfortable and know that they have people they can talk to when they need some advice.
If you live in the Maritimes and are looking for your start in the trucking industry contact Clarke Road today!
