  • BCB is partnering with customer to deliver supplies to N.C. 
    • Our BCB team is driving a trailer of supplies from Grand Prairie, Texas, to North Carolina, in partnership with a valued customer.

Safety matters:

Our drivers have prepped for the challenges of traveling in a disaster-struck area: 

  • With nearly a third of gas stations out of fuel, drivers are fueling up before entering affected areas 
  • Bridge closures are requiring alternate routes 
  • Even in a crisis, safety is still a key focus: Our drivers will continue to abide by hours-of-service regulations throughout their service
