☀️Summer's on the way- and so is the heat! 🥵

As temperatures start to climb, we're reminding our drivers (and everyone!) to stay alert, stay hydrated, and stay safe. Long, hot days can sneak up fast, but a little prep goes a long way in avoiding heat-related illness.

At Quicksilver, safety is always our top priority, and that includes taking care of ourselves in the heat. Let’s all plan ahead, take breaks, and look out for one another this summer. 🧢

✨ Customer Connection! ✨

Get to know Grove Nursery! Located in Corcoran, MN, they’re a wholesale supplier of hardy landscape plants and materials. They cater to local landscapers, contractors, and garden centers.

🚧The Challenge: Grove Nursery started out with their own truck and delivery driver 20 years ago, but struggled to keep up with the demand for delivery. Their customers are frequently faced with labor shortages, leaving little time for employees to gather materials needed for their projects.

🚀The QEC Solution: When Grove Nursery’s demand for delivery services outgrew their abilities, Quicksilver was able to partner with them to fill the gap. Having a partner like Quicksilver allows Grove Nursery to ship materials in a timely fashion directly to their customers’ job sites. With the reasonable rates that Quicksilver charges, this saves them both time and money.

📈The Impact: "All of us at Grove Nursery greatly appreciate our relationship with Quicksilver Express," says Mariah, Sales and Customer Service Rep at Grove Nursery. "Their drivers are courteous, professional, and motivated. Although not required, Quicksilver drivers will often help with the loading and unloading process. Their dispatch is great at communicating any challenges or delays, and offering creative ways to get the job done."

We love supporting local businesses like Grove Nursery and helping them succeed!

Exceptional service isn't just about delivering packages, it's about delivering dependable solutions. A recent customer shared how our team member, Shantay, provided outstanding and empathetic support during a sensitive delivery. 'Her professionalism and eagerness to help greatly lowered my anxiety and gave me confidence." We're incredibly grateful for Shantay's commitment to going above and beyond for our customers.
