Jacksonville BMC Manager Yvonne Wecker congratulates Driver Gerald CockrumIt’s a safety mile­stone few ever reach. The Jacksonville, FL, Bulk Mail Center trans­portation team recently made their 2 millionth trailer move — covering a span of seven years — without a single acci­dent. The achievement amounts to roughly 800 trailer moves a day for more than 2,500 con­secutive days.

Jacksonville postal and union officials cheered Motor Vehicle Driver Gerald Cockrum, a National Safety Award honoree, as he made the historic trailer move.

The BMC is rapidly approaching another landmark safety accomplishment. This October the facility antici­pates marking its fourth consecutive year without an indus­trial accident in its transportation area.
