To our Community
The health and safety of our employees, dealers, customers, suppliers, and community are of the utmost importance to us. As the COVID-19 situation changes daily, if not hourly, we are committed to doing our part to keep everyone safe and healthy.
Lode King is proud to be a part of one of the most important industries in North America. If you think about the many items you use during your day, there is a good chance that there was a truck and trailer that made it possible. A big thank you to the drivers and the support teams scheduling all these loads so our personal lives carry on in these uncertain times. Also, thank you to the families of these brave drivers – you carry on life at home without your loved ones at home every night.
