Protecting our customers.
It’s no secret that trucking carries a degree of risk. At Jetco Delivery, we proactively manage this inherent risk through a constant commitment to hiring only the best drivers and continually improving our process.
However, we cannot prevent every accident. That’s why we partner with only the best insurance carriers. Currently we have:- Auto liability insurance
- Workman’s compensation insurance
- Up to $1.0 million cargo insurance (see our terms and conditions)
The danger isn’t just in driving either. What would happen, for example, if our employee is injured at your site or the site of your customer?
In Texas, workman’s compensation insurance is not mandatory. However, it is the only statutory protection available to protect you and your customer in the event of such an occurrence.
At Jetco Delivery, we carry it because we believe that workman’s compensation is essential for your protection. Do all of your trucking companies carry workman’s compensation insurance?
Always Looking Ahead
Quick thinking by two Jetco drivers averts disaster in freeway accident.
Jeanne Fralicks had taken the same route along Interstate 20 to her job at the city of Duncanville, Texas, for more than 10 years.
But the morning of Aug. 29 was different than any she’d experienced in recent memory. As Fralicks was driving along I-20 on her way to work, her truck was hit from the side by another motorist and spun around facing the oncoming traffic.

Jetco Receives Safety Award
A commitment to safety and a focus on preventing accidents throughout the company led to Jetco Delivery’s recognition with a Platinum Award as part of Great West Casualty Company’s 2008 National Safety Awards Program.
The award marks the third consecutive year that Jetco has received safety recognition from Great West. Last year, the company received the Gold Award from the organization.
The National Safety Awards Program recognizes carriers in similar operations (truckload and less than truckload) with awards based on their year-end preventable accident results. Carriers are eligible to receive a Platinum, Gold, Silver or Participatory award. This past year, the program drew more than 800 participants from across the country.
“Jetco continues to foster an environment where safety is a priority in all that we do, and we believe this award is another example of our employees’ dedication to safe working practices,” said Jeff McKinney, director of safety and human resources for Jetco.
What’s the Score of your Carriers?
At Jetco, safety is our No. 1 priority. Our safety record shows up in our CSA Score. Compliance, Safety, Accountability (CSA) is the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s (FMCSA) innovative new method of reducing bus and truck crashes on our roads. CSA enables FMCSA and its State Partners to more effectively identify the safety problems of motor carriers and their drivers. CSA also offers a new methodology that enhances the measurement of a motor carrier’s safety performance and adds innovative new tools designed to correct safety problems.
