Jerry Ollerich Trucking Observing 50 Years of Business as DOT # 909

Jerry began driving semis at age 16, and has 59 years of experience driving, closing in on 8,000,000 miles of safety, with one accident at age 18.

He has worked with, hired, and mentored numerous drivers, many of whom became his good friends.

His self-employment has been an enjoyable way to earn a living, and presently, he has no intention of retiring, because, “I’ve never worked a day in my life!”

Jerry has been a member of South Dakota Trucking Association since 1981, was selected as Driver of the Month in 1994, has served on the Association Board of Directors for many years, and recently completed his two-year commitment as Chairman of the Board. He encourages everyone in the trucking industry that membership in the SDTA brings countless resources and rewards to them, and he highly recommends that every South Dakota trucking company become a member.

Jerry and his wife, Jean, have four children, seven grandchildren, and reside in Sioux Falls.
