TUCKER COMPANY WORLDWIDE PROVIDES TRUCKING OF RECYCLED CHRISTMAS TREES FOR STUDENTS

Haddonfield, NJ, USA, January 18, 2012 - Tucker Company Worldwide (www.tuckerco.com), a freight transportation company is lending a hand, or in this case a free of charge truck driver and 45’ tractor-trailer, to students of Haddonfield Memorial High School (“HMHS”). The students are providing a day of service on Martin Luthor King Day, helping coordinators in Seaside Heights, NJ, by delivering and installing approximately 120 recycled Christmas trees. The trees provide an effective, and environmentally friendly root system for beach dunes.

Haddonfield resident, and parent of Patrick Shea, an HMHS student, Jean Shea is spearheading the initiative. Shea asked Haddonfield Mayor Tish Columbi for the trees. Mayor Columbi offered the trees, and then reached out to Haddonfield residents, brothers Jim and Jeff Tucker, owners of 52 year old Tucker Company Worldwide. The Tuckers offered free transportation logistics coordination. One of Tucker’s premier truckload carrier partners, woman-owned Mustang Expediting, Inc., of Aston, PA then (www.mustangexpediting.com) offered its driver and equipment for free.

On Saturday, January 19 from 12:30 to 1:30, Tucker Company Worldwide staff, their families, along with families from Haddonfield’s J. F. Tatem Elementary School will also be lending a hand to their High School colleagues, by loading the trees into trailer at the Haddonfield Borough Public Works Complex. At approximately 8:30 on Monday, January 21, the truck and a bus full of HMHS students will leave and arrive in Seaside Heights later, to unload and help the installation.
