To satisfy America’s Thanksgiving demand, roughly 46 million turkeys are shipped during the month of November. That number equates to 26,000 refrigerated full truckloads of turkey moving across the country. WOW!

So, if you went to the grocery store and found a turkey and all the fixings you needed for your Thanksgiving dinner this year, be sure to thank a trucker for bringing it. If you bought it, a truck brought it.
