2023 Driver of the year - Austin spaulding
Experience the Best in Transportation with BWY Transport INC
Austin has been with BWY Transport for over 5 years as our most tenured driver, and has been selected more than once as Driver of the Month. So, it is well deserved that he has been selected as driver of the year. He was nominated by dispatch due to his consistency in communication and reliability. He is “that guy we can count on to get the job done timely and with care”.
Interesting tidbits on Austin: – he was a lieutenant in the Sheriff’s dept in Meridian MS before he decided to bust out of the “jail scene” and enter the transportation world. He just didn’t like the way the culture was headed in the department so he took the opportunity to attend driving school at Meridian Community College. He obtained his CDL in 2014 and then started out as a team driver with a previous co-worker from the Sheriff’s dept. While it was nice not having to worry about parking, team driving only worked out for about a year before Austin moved onto solo driving. He worked with a large carrier a couple of years and then ended up with a company named Transpower in Tupelo MS. That turned out to be the link that brought BWY and Austin together. BWY partnered with Transpower in our beginning. When Transpower shut down, we were fortunate to buy our Kenworths from them and also bring over several drivers who we had developed relationships with – like Austin. When asked what he likes about driving a truck, Austin stated “not always knowing where I will be going” – enjoying new places, new things. In his down time, he doesn’t need a lot of entertainment, he simply enjoys relaxing at home in Macon, GA where he has family and friends and enjoys time outdoors. BWY is grateful to have Austin on our team and happy to recognize his professionalism and work ethic!
