A TWIC card gives truck drivers access to secure areas of maritime facilities and vessels without needing an escort. If your freight takes you into ports or other restricted maritime facilities, having a TWIC card can expand the loads you're able to haul and help you avoid delays associated with escorted access.

Are you currently packing your suitcase for driver orientation? Before you get any further, I have some advice for you — namely, some do’s and don’ts. As a truck driver, you’re probably wondering why on earth it possibly matters what you wear to orientation. You’re a truck driver who spends most of your day in the truck or getting hot and sweaty securing and tarping loads. You probably don’t even have time (or access to) a shower every day, so why does your orientation wardrobe matter?
