What drivers learn

High-value doesn't just mean electronics or pharmaceuticals. Copper, tobacco, alcohol, apparel, and food and beverage loads get stolen just as often, because they're easy to move and easy to sell fast.

Here's how it usually goes

Someone follows a truck out of the shipper's lot, waits for the first stop, and either steals the whole tractor-trailer or cuts a seal and pulls product off the back.

That's why the protocols exist

Seals matter. The number on your seal has to match the number on your bill of lading before you leave the shipper, and you check it again at every stop after that. If a seal looks cut, re-taped, or doesn't match your paperwork, you don't touch it.

Your company standard: verify the seal number against your paperwork before you leave the shipper, and again after every stop. Don't make your first stop right outside the shipper's gate — put real distance behind you before you take a break.

None of this is about not trusting you. It's about making sure whoever's looking for an easy target doesn't find one on your truck. A driver who checks the seal, picks the right lot, and keeps quiet about the load is the reason these loads reach the dock exactly the way they left.
