Supporting Wreaths Across America

Since 2007, Wreaths Across America has invited drivers like you to help ensure that future generations understand the importance of remembering fallen service members, honoring those who serve and teaching others about their sacrifices.

At J.B. Hunt, the Wreaths Across America mission—Remember, Honor, Teach—is a commitment we share with all service members. As a company founded by a veteran, we’re honored to join the annual convoy that delivers evergreen wreaths to national cemeteries across the country. Together, we deliver gratitude, respect and remembrance to those who gave everything.

What is Wreaths Across America?

Wreaths Across America is a nonprofit organization that works to honor fallen service members by placing evergreen wreaths on their graves in national cemeteries across the country. Each year, more than two million wreaths are laid at over 2,100 locations, thanks to the dedication of nearly three million volunteers. Since 2014, J.B. Hunt has offered our time, equipment and resources to help make this mission possible.

This year, 81 J.B. Hunt drivers were selected to join the Wreaths Across America convoy and haul 57 loads across the country. Thirteen of these loads will be delivered directly to national cemeteries. This amounts to approximately 330,000 wreaths hauled throughout December as they make their way across the country.

Louis, a Dedicated Contract Services^® driver, has been with J.B. Hunt for 33 years and has driven more than three million safe miles. He is an Army veteran, and says that being a part of this year’s convoy was a deeply personal experience.
