TORRINGTON – Truckers are doing their best to keep stores stocked during the COVID-19 times.
Michael Miskell of Torrington, who drives as a dedicated Sam’s Club driver for Knight Transportation, is taking it one day at a time to ensure that product gets where it needs to go.
Miskell started trucking in 1999 and does his best to make sure that his truck is always in tip-top shape to make each haul.
For trucker’s, their job delivering products might come as a worry for some during the weeks of social-distancing, but Miskell said they are able to stay pretty safe because of the small amount of contact they have with other people.
“I got to, like Sam’s Club, walk in the door and there’s a big glass window, and there’s a little hole,” Miskell said.
Person-to-person contact is minimal because of the process.
