10th Annual Pay It Forward Golf Tournament

Supporting our community has always been part of the MVT story. This year, our 10th Annual Pay It Forward Golf Tournament is dedicated to Children’s Miracle Network and the El Paso Children’s Hospital Foundation, two causes that make a real difference for local children and their families.

It’s one of the many ways MVT shows up for the community we call home. You can catch the full conversation in the latest episode of Truck’n Talk with Stephanie Valle and Alexa Velazquez.

 

Driver Appreciation Day

Mark your calendars! Driver Appreciation Day is Thursday, August 20th, from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at all El Paso, Hutchins, Laredo, Ohio, Tennessee MVT terminals.

Enjoy great food, giveaways, and an afternoon celebrating the people who keep MVT moving every day.

​We’ll also announce the driver with the best MPG average and a perfect CSA score for the quarter, who will drive away in a brand-new car courtesy of President and CEO Royal Jones.

​We can’t wait to celebrate the best drivers in the business!

 

Meet the Team

We’ve released two new Meet the Team episodes featuring Eduardo Duran, an MVT team driver, and Manuel Guerra, Warehouse Supervisor.

​Learn about their experiences at MVT, what has helped them succeed, and why they enjoy being part of the team.

UVeye Lane Technology

Our new UVeye Lane Technology is now operating at the El Paso Terminal, providing consistent vehicle inspections and a historical record of equipment condition.

​UVeye helps identify potential issues earlier, improve maintenance planning, streamline inspections, and support our Maintenance, Safety, and Operations teams.

It’s another way MVT is investing in technology to keep our fleet moving safely and efficiently.

Safety Reminder

Stay focused. Stay safe. ​Safe driving starts with staying attentive behind the wheel.

​Keep your eyes moving by scanning the road ahead, checking your mirrors regularly, and staying aware of everything happening around you.

​Before every trip, plan your route, keep both hands on the wheel, and give driving your full attention. ​A phone call, text, or other distraction can always wait. Your safety and the safety of everyone around you—cannot.

​Make smart choices, stay alert, and help keep our roads safe for everyone.

 

Wellness Corner

At MVT, your health and safety are always a priority.

​This month, we’re focusing on simple ways to stay rested, alert, and ready for the road.

​Take advantage of your rest breaks to recharge properly, stay active with light stretching or exercise, fuel your body with nutritious meals, and stay hydrated throughout the day.

​Most importantly, if you’re feeling tired, pull over safely and take the break your body needs. When you take care of yourself, you’re better prepared for every mile ahead.

 

Tell Me Something Good

This month’s Tell Me Something Good recognizes Ina Roldan, Business Analyst II.

​Joshua Leon nominated Ina for her unwavering support, positive attitude, and willingness to help others succeed.

​Joshua shared that Ina always takes time out of her busy schedule to answer questions, assist her teammates, and find solutions even when the answers aren’t immediately available. He also said her positive attitude is contagious and makes a difference for everyone around her.

Thank you, Ina, for your dedication, teamwork, and commitment to helping others succeed. Your positivity continues to strengthen the MVT family.

 

Motivational Monday

We’ll leave you with this month’s Motivational Monday from Richard Mijares, OS&D Representative.

“I am the master of my fate. I am the captain of my soul.”

​At Mesilla Valley Transportation, success starts with ownership, discipline, and the drive to keep moving forward.

​Every mile, every goal, and every challenge is an opportunity to lead with purpose and stay in control of the road ahead.

​We’d love to hear what motivates you.
