Christmastime is here! While your trucker is busy making deliveries and making sure that the stores get their items on time, you are out Christmas shopping. If you don’t know what to get your hard-working spouse or friend for Christmas we have some ideas that might help.
16 must-have items Truckers want for Christmas this year!
- Subscription to Sirius XM radio
- A basket full of snacks
- New sunglasses
- Mini fridge
- Supportive seat cushion
- Slow cooker
- Thermos
- TV
- CB radio
- KCups
- Truck Mattress
- Boots
- Restaurant gift cards
- Shower supplies
- Car Vacuum
- Book or Magazine
While these are just a few of this year’s must-haves you should know what your trucker needs this year.
As you know, trucker’s spend a lot of time out on the road. That means that they don’t need a lot of stuff as they live in their trucks. Things like the Subscription to Sirius XM radio won’t take up space but will give your trucker something to listen to as he or she is driving down the highway.
Another great tip for the holidays is to write your loved-one numbered cards before they leave. This way, they have a new card to open from you or different family members while they are out on the road. Doing this will give them something to look forward to as they are making their next haul.
The holidays can be hard, especially if your trucker isn’t able to come home. It is important to take advantage of technology. Use things like Skype or FaceTime to ensure that the trucker in your life isn’t too lonely this year. It may also be a good idea to schedule your festivities around the time when your loved one arrives home.
Christmas isn’t about the “things” you buy, but the memories you make. That is why we believe that you should always take the time to let your loved ones know you care. Relax, have fun, and eat good food while you have the time. You never know what tomorrow will bring!
We hope you and yours have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
