MSC Conference Recap with Boxy Bobby
I asked Gabby Boubonis to face off against Danny Neal, ATA’s VP of Sales and Marketing, because I’m a champion foosball player and didn’t want to show up anyone. Boxes can be humble, too, you know!
We had a great time seeing everyone at the MSC Conference held by the ATA! I forgot how much fun it is to be on the road. Thanks for stopping by our booth to chat with all of us. I snapped this photo of our AVP Brandon Laam and our Senior Underwriter Gabby Boubonis ready to sling some swag and snacks. Lookin’ good, Mover’s Choice team!

Accident Investigation & Reporting
The best way to control long-term claims costs is to establish and train employees on the proper method for accident investigation and reporting. Accident investigation and reporting are critical in reducing the costs of both workers’ compensation and vehicle accidents.
Fuel Spills
Fuel spills resulting from vehicle accidents can be very expensive. Regardless of the circumstances, the spill generator is liable and responsible for cleanup. Costs of a fuel spill can be reduced with proper planning and training, and managing the fuel spill with immediate and appropriate response.
