Kristy Knichel and Casey Coffey with Curtis Garrett

Curtis is on a career-long mission to advance LTL via technology, process and relationships while simplifying and demolishing the silos that have existed for decades. He is a huge believer of working in public. Curtis documents and shares challenges, progress, and goals in a collaborative and community driven way. Curtis has spent 16 years in the LTL industry - 8 of those with Old Dominion Freight Line, and the last 8 with Reconex, FreightPlus, and Understand LTL - which he recently launched as an LTL focused education firm. Curtis' career has taken him through LTL operations - both driver and dock, Weights and Research, pricing, yield management, strategy, sales, and technology. Curtis is a massive proponent and student of LTL technology and believes that as an industry, LTL is still in the very early stages of information sharing, connectivity, and decision making. Curtis is very much looking forward to seeing what the LTL community has to bring to the table as it evolves.
