FreightCasts Back The Truck Up EP27 Wintertime freight security with Scott Cornell & Travelers Insurance
Cargo theft is a constant in trucking, and different seasons means different freight is being sought after by bands of thieves. Scott Cornell, National Practice Transportation Lead at Travelers, joins the Back The Truck Up Podcast to inform our listeners about the trends and tactics that organized bands of cargo thieves are using.
Maintaining spacial awareness, having a robust locking system on your truck and trailer, and following routing guidelines when hauling high risk cargo are some of the topics covered on the podcast. As we get closer to the holidays and the final rush of high ticket items gets sent out for delivery, drivers need to pay attention to what is going on around them and be aware someone is always wanting what you are hauling.
