Mill Shipment Surge Team
Recognized for supporting a significant increase in inbound material shipments. Through teamwork between High Transit and High Steel Structures, and other High Companies partners the team helped avoid more than $200,000 in labor and demurrage costs while maintaining safe and efficient operations.
🎉 Honoring Our Retirees
We celebrated the retirement of James Humbert "Jimbo," after 29 years of service and 2.4 million safe driver miles. As a dedicated Service Center driver, Jimbo spent nearly three decades delivering products safely and reliably to customers throughout the region. His professionalism and commitment to excellence have made a lasting impact on High Transit and the customers he served.
We also honored Al Best, who is retiring after 26 years as an es**rt driver, helping ensure the safe movement of countless oversize loads throughout his career.
In addition, we recognized Dick Boroughs "Coach," who will be retiring later this year and whose years of service and dedication have made a lasting contribution to High Transit.
Congratulations to all of our award recipients, service award honorees, Good Measure Award winners, and retirees. Thank you for your hard work!
