In times of need, Estes is there, delivering support to the communities where we live, work, and serve. In Charlottesville, VA, a local radio station sponsored a Hurricane Helene relief drive and needed help getting life-sustaining supplies to impacted communities. Estes stepped in to help by donating a trailer, and once it was filled with donated water, non-perishable food items, diapers, and hygiene products, we transported the goods to areas affected by the storm. Estes is happy to go the extra mile to help those in need!

As the Southeast recovers from Hurricane Helene, Estes is there with the communities where we live, work, and serve — delivering help when and where it’s needed most. Some of the many efforts Estes is leading include Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) relief. Over 170 drivers are delivering lifesaving commodities like water, food, and tarps to residents in North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia. Estes managers and supervisors are coordinating these efforts. More than a dozen dockworkers are also helping load trailers, ensuring that as many supplies as possible are delivered. Together, we are #EstesStrong.

It was so great to have you! We're looking forward to our partnership!
KDL had the pleasure of visiting the corporate office of one of our valued carrier partners, Estes Express Lines, and it was an insightful experience! During our meeting with the Estes team—Ric Spicer, Lamar Calloway, Brian Jeppson, James (Jim) Shumate, Charley Farren, Mark Watson, Carrie Johnstone, and Paula Evans—we delved into the exciting advancements Estes is making in the sustainability space. Their commitment to eco-friendly practices is commendable and aligns with the industry’s shift toward greener logistics solutions. We explored Estes’ Special Services department, highlighting their innovative approaches to meet diverse customer needs and discussed strategies for enhancing operational efficiencies and how to leverage our combined strengths to provide diverse offerings to our clients in the future. We are excited about the potential for collaboration and the shared vision for future growth between our teams. Here’s to building a more sustainable and efficient logistics landscape together! #Logistics #Sustainability #Partnership #EstesExpressLines #SupplyChainExcellence #Innovation #Collaboration #GrowthMindset

#TeamEstes collected 200+ children's books through our book drive at the corporate office for Children's Hospital of Richmond at VCU. Estes and our partner PaperPie matched the donation, bringing the total to over 600 books! Estes kicked off Spirit Week celebrations by packing and delivering the books to the CHoR Children's Tower, where our team helped restock the book carts. Estes made a $300,000 gift to fund the Medical Play Space and Multi-Sensory Room within the new Child Life Zone at CHoR, to open late 2024. The Estes Loading Dock and other areas of the Children’s Tower are also named in honor of Estes following a nearly $2 million donation made in 2021. At Estes, we believe in giving back to the communities we serve. Thank you to 12 On Your Side for the feature about the drive: https://lnkd.in/ejaNTcFJ #EstesForGood
