He completed a course at L.C.C.C. and started his career in trucking to support his family.

In 1993, Sean Shubert began his trucking journey by driving vans. Over the years, he gained experience with Tanker and Hazmat, eventually pursuing his own container truck through a lease purchase program. When a friend recommended Quality Carriers to him, Sean decided to give it a try. QC’s lease purchase program was too good to pass up. While Sean acknowledges that a lease purchase may not be for everyone, he encourages others to give it a try as it can lead to a successful career. With retirement on the horizon, Sean plans on finishing out his trucking career with Quality Carriers. Congratulations on three decades of trucking excellence, Sean! We’re proud to have you as part of our team.
