2019 Bennett Woman Driver of Excellence Award Recipient

Heidi was raised in the trucking business and now carries on the tradition. She has been driving for about six and a half years. She first started by escorting for her husband Carr, who is also a driver for Bennett Truck Transport. After going to driving school to get her license, it felt natural for her to be in the driver’s seat. Heidi has a real passion for driving and she enjoys her job every time she gets behind the wheel.

Heidi is well respected by her peers and is loved by all of Bennett’s customers. She will do whatever is needed to give great customer service. Each day is different and she loves delivering someone’s new home and to see the joy on their faces when they see their new home for the first time.
