Safety Standards

No load is worth injury to our drivers or others. We make it the responsibility of all Indian River team members to be well-versed, well-informed, and well-trained in our safety measures. From compliance training to safety standards, our team members highly value the well-being of customers, co-workers, and the general public. This does not just stop at training. It starts there and continues with our safety measures such as company-provided equipment, safety inspections, and 24-hour emergency contact and breakdown assistance.

Many companies tout safety as a big priority. Priorities, however, change as time rolls along. For us, Safety is a value – it’s part of everything we do. From the proper sanitization of our tanks to our ongoing driver safety training, Indian River Transport always takes the safe route.

Some of our driver-focused safety measures include:

  • 24-hour breakdown assistance
  • 24-hour emergency contact in case of accidents
  • Online web training to ensure our drivers always train on the latest safety standards
  • Ongoing safety training to drive ongoing driver performance improvements
  • Company provided safety equipment (vest, hard hat, etc.)
  • Preventative vehicle safety inspections ensuring equipment is safe to operate
  • DOT physicals monitored to ensure driver health
