After 10 years of research funded by the National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation, the National Premium Truck Seat has come to be—a chair that is more than a chair, a seat that allows you to drive comfortably without the risk of injury to your back or other areas. Now, you can drive in comfort, knowing that you are not putting yourself at long or short-term risk.

Scientists have determined that back pain occurs in those who must sit for most of the day because the body puts all of its weight on the spine while sitting in one position, putting continued pressure on that spine and causing strain in muscles and ligaments, as well as spinal disc pressure on nerves. A loss of circulation in spinal disks also occurs. All of these occurrences can leave you feeling harsh back pain.

But with the Premium Truck Seat, that pain is gone! The seat reduces the pressure on the discs and nerves, improves circulation, and allows muscles to more naturally strain and rest. A more natural feel is a better feel, and you will have much less pressure to your back as you ride in this comfortable and stylish seat.  Shoulder cushions protect you from chafing, while lumbar support with air cushions cradles your back like no other product, perhaps making your seat more comfortable than the armchair you relax in at home.

And the National Premium Truck Seat is perfect for anyone, whether you’re tall, short, or in between.  The high back contoured cushions increase comfort for all body types, while the ability to recline the seat allows you to pick the driving angle that you feel most comfortable with, in addition to position your chair for a quick siesta. 

Crafted in sleek gray leather, the seat features an eye-catching design of lighter gray in the interior and darker gray on the exterior, making the seat look futuristic and handsome in the cab of any truck.  Built especially for truckers, this seat features controls that allow the driver to change position without taking his or her focus from the road.

With a five-year warranty, you can be sure that your chair is as well made as it is comfortable. By trusting the National Seating name, as well as the research that has gone into the crating of this seat, you’ll be making an investment that can both improve the personal quality of your life and improve your health.  Check out this seat on the Internet today to peruse photos, check out other seats by National Seating, view more details, or request a quote.

No matter what type of trailer you have, it’s important to keep it updated for the winter. Trailers that are not properly winterized are liable to receive damage and be unable to work properly. In addition, it may have a much shorter lifespan if you do not winterize.

Preparing your trailer for winter takes know-how and forethought. You’ll need to be sure to winterize before winter is already in full swing, or your efforts may do little good. First, you need to be sure that you’re using the proper type of fuel for winter, that you have tires that can stand up to the snow, and that you’ve taken your trailer for a routine check up to be sure that it does not have any problems that the cold weather may exacerbate.

After this, your process of winterization depends on the type of trailer that you have. For instance, if you have a horse van, you’ll need to take care to make sure liquids, such as the water reservoirs, are empty or insulated to prevent freezing. In RVs and other trailers with living quarters, you’ll need to take actions to make sure that the plumbing is cleared of water before winter sets in.

Other than liquids, you’ll need to make sure that the trailer stays warm enough during the winter. If you have a trailer with living quarters, this might mean running a heater. In many trailers, though, you need to be careful about running a heater, as certain types of heat can cause asphyxiation if you are running it while in the trailer.

Other steps to winterizing a trailer include covering the tires, taking steps to keep the battery in best condition, being sure to seal the vehicle from rodents, theft, and weather conditions if it will not be in use.

Whether you’re an over-the-highway driver or a local transporter, a flatbed truck can be one of the most useful pieces of equipment that you’ve ever invested in. The types of industries that use flatbed trucks include farmers and ranchers, construction workers, and even tow truck drivers who transport vehicles that cannot be driven or rolled on their tires.

When you’re thinking about how to buy a flatbed truck, then, the first thing you need to think about is how you’ll use the truck. How long will your truck need to be? You can only answer this question if you think of what you’ll be transporting and what you’ll be doing with the truck on a daily basis. Think about this, then ask others in your industry or do some online research to determine what length of truck you will need and what specifications it must have.

Next, you’ll need to look at all the flatbeds available and how they function. The structure of the truck you buy can end up hurting or helping your business a great deal. If you buy a truck that can make your work simpler, then you’ll have an easier time working each day.

After you’ve decided what you want and need, it’s time to begin searching. You’ll want to call dealerships, check out what’s available online, and even contact makers and fleet owners to see what they have available. Come up with a median price for both new and used trucks to compare your final selections with in the end.

Finally, it’s time to make some decisions. Using your research, decide whether new or used is best for you. Once you’ve decided, come up with a price range you can live with. With this information and your research, you’ll be ready to hit the flatbed truck shopping scene and make some choices that will really benefit your business.

These days, most people know that sitting all day can be just as taxing and just as tiring as standing all day. Of course, sitting all day can also harm your back. For this reason, there are many chairs and seat covers on the market designed for truckers who not only sit all day, but who sit in an uncomfortable drivers’ seat, strapped in, for many hours each day. One of the most unique examples of these products is the Super Seat Orthopedic Seat Cushion.

This patented product was manufactured in order to relieve the pain associated with sitting for long periods of time. Just a few of the conditions that the seat can relieve are arthritis, rheumatism, prostate issues, leg cramps, and hemorrhoids. Because the seat is designed to suspend the spine in mid air, pressure on these areas is relieved. This way, truckers don’t have to be concerned with so many of the ill effects of trucking. In the long run, this simple seat can spare truckers hundreds of dollars in medical bills and the pain associated with driving a truck. In fact, many doctors and chiropractors actually recommend that patients who are forced to sit all day purchase this Super Seat model.

In addition to relieving the pain associated with driving a truck, the Super Seat can also improve the look of your vehicle. Crafted out of beautiful manmade sheepskin, the cushion adds class and style to the interior of your cab. Available in tan or brown, you can choose the style that best augments the décor of your cab. Further, the seat is soft, so it feels wonderful against the back and legs, whether it’s hot or cold.

Super Seat Orthopedic Seat cushion is only $42.95 plus shipping and handling, a small price to pay considering the amount of pain you will alleviate because you purchased a Super Seat. In addition, Super Seat is easy to install and maintain. In fact, you only need to clean the seat periodically by brushing it down and washing the cover.

Whether you’ve begun to feel the pain of sitting in one place all day or you’re avoiding its onset, there’s one way to prevent or get rid of that pain completely—Super Seat!

In most of the United States right now, it’s too hot to think about needing some extra warmth at night, but winter will be here before you know it, and then you’ll be looking for something to keep you toasty in the evening. Of course, where staying really warm counts is when you are sleeping. During the day, you’re living a busy trucker’s life, driving and maintaining your truck. You don’t have time to get cold! But when you’re lying in your sleeping quarters at night, it gets chilly pretty fast.

While you can solve this problem by using electric blankets, these are often uncomfortable. If you put the blanket on top of you, you may experience being hot in some areas while cold in others, and it’s easy to toss and turn and let the blanket slip off. Under you, the blanket can easily be pushed off the bed. If you’d rather have real heat from below, spread out evenly, then you need an ElectroWarmth 12-volt bunk warmer.

Not an electric blanket, this is an electric mattress pad that offers soothing, relaxing warmth in three sizes. Because it heats from below and is specifically designed for the size of your mattress, this is the way to get that warmth that really counts when it’s time to hit the sack.

Of course, if your mattress is feeling a little lumpy, you can also opt for the easy, portable luxury mattress offered alongside the warmers in Berubes’ catalog. This mattress, designed by InnerSpace Mobile, is the perfect addition to the trucker’s on-the-go kit. It rolls into a convenient-to-carry load, but expands into a 6.5-inch thick sleeping mattress when you let it out of the sack. This mattress uses no air pump, so you don’t have to wait for it to inflate on those ultra-tired nights. In addition, you never have to worry about this mattress getting punctured on the road. Instead, you can be ready to sleep in comfort every night with this thick, comfortable luxury mattress.

And if you purchase both together, you can rest assured that you’ll rest easy on the road. In fact, your sleeping quarters might be so comfortable that you don’t want to go back to the bed in your apartment or house. Truckers who like to camp can also use both of these products on the campsite, or buy them for the camping enthusiast that you know.

So if you’re looking for comfort, check out Berube’s catalog online or in print to find these two items that are bound to make your life on the road just a little easier on the back.

You remember from truck driving school how hard backing up can be in your semi-truck. Even if you own a medium-duty commercial vehicle, backing—especially when you are trying to emerge from unloading docks, parking spots, fuel bays, and other tight spots, can be a challenge.

Dedicated to safety, company Mobile Awareness has a solution to this dangerous aspect of driving a commercial vehicle—the wireless object detection system. With just ten screws, two wires connected to the backing lights, and a 12-volt and ground connection, you can install a state-of-the-art wireless truck backup sensor ready to keep you safe as you drive.

The display unit uses bright LED lights to display the distance of objects in four field zones, making sure that you don’t encounter any objects while backing. Designed to consider safety first, this unit is reliable. It uses waterproof sensors to be sure that signal strength is not compromised by inclement weather. And because it is so easy to install, there is little fear of having the truck backup sensors incorrectly installed. In addition, the unit clearly indicates the distance of the objects, so you won’t have to waste time checking and rechecking objects that you are already maneuvering around. Specifically designed for truckers that often have to change trailers, the system is easily transferable from trailer to trailer, leaving you no excuse to put safety first.

Although you can’t put a price on safety, you can put a price on wireless object detection systems. The price on this system, manufactured by SenseStat is only $279, a price that is much less than the cost of installing a camera backing system, but is just as safe. With this truck backup sensor system, you’ll have the quality of SenseStat and the power of a two-year warranty, making sure that your purchase is protected. If you’re not satisfied with the product’s performance you can simply use the warranty to replace the unit.

No matter what kind of truck you’re driving, it’s important to remain safe, and backing can be one of the most dangerous maneuvers you are forced to make. With this system, you’ll be sure to have reliable technology on your side.
