ABF | US mail carriers file for bankruptcy

[BIG R GUY]

Earlier this year, a number of multiple individual trucking companies owned by Hoovestol were merged into one company - 10 Roads Express. “We are a mail hauling company, and haul mail all over the country including Alaska,” Shonka explained. “The core of the business is mail.”Mar 17, 2021 ............................................................................................................................................................... Actually sounds like Hoovestol rebranded them all under the 10 Roads name.

Makes it easier for them to screw with the drivers pay under 1 name, instead of multiple company names. Synergies, again rearing its ugly head.

USPS changed how they pay companies that haul mail about 2 years ago. A bunch of companies have either closed or got bought out. In the east long term mail haulers all sold out in the last year to larger ones. Lots of stickers covering old names up.

This is true I noticed 10 Roads Express came out of nowhere and basically bought up Golden Eagle and some of the others. Even the smaller haulers all gobbled each other up.

Hangbelly,
Have you heard any more about Brugh closing? Their website is still up and running like normal.

Their website was left up, but they ceased all operations on July 31st. I confirmed it
