MATS 2013

Posted by Linda Chambers on Thu, Mar 21, 2013 @ 02:50 PM

It is that time again. Time for the Mid America Trucking Show, held in Louisville, KY, this year from today March 21st until Saturday the 23rd.

Although we are not exhibiting and I am not even attending any of the three day event, Soap Warehouse is having a presence through the publications we are advertising in, special offers sent out via Twitter and interacting with those on Facebook that are at the event.

We are in Transportation Topics buyers guide this entire year on their web site at http://www.TTNews.com.

We have also been running ads in Fleet Owner magazine and this month we have a quarter page ad on page 136 that contains a QR code directing scanners with smart phones to view a special offer.

It was another great show this year in Louisville, KY. We again were a sponsor of Big Rig Networks MATS 2012 Sweepstakes.

We enjoyed being able to walk around and visit will all the freight companies at MATS there looking for drivers. We hope to better reach new Owner Operators through the companies they work for instead of exhibiting in a booth and trying to talk to drivers one on one.

MATS truck wash specials will still be available until April 30th, so call us if you would like to try a 5 gallon of one or more of our great truck wash products.

Great American Trucking Show 2011

Posted by Linda Chambers on Mon, Aug 29, 2011 @ 12:44 PM

GATS as is it more affectionately known, has come and gone for another year. This past week in Dallas TX, truckers and trucking enthusiasts came to see what was new in the industry, look at cool decked out trucks, and listen to country music singer and song writer Jamey Johnson perform.

GATS East is one of the three top trucking shows held every year in the US. And although Soap Warehouse was not an exhibitor this time, we have been in the past and we continued our 4 year run participating in Big Rig Network's Sweepstakes, with drawings held daily at their booth.

Soap Warehouse gave one lucky winner per day a 5 gallon tight drum of concentrated truck wash. Winners could chose between five different washes: Brown Derby, Big Rig Brite, Blue Lightning, White Lightning or Truck-N-Tuff.

This years winners for the first time were both from TX; Roger Horton of Grandury and Jack Currie of Kennard.

We congratulate them on being our winners and look forward to them using one of our great truck wash chemicals to clean their rigs.

Our next event to exhibit will be in October in Nashville at the Power Washers of North America Convention. But our next Truck Show will not be until next Spring we we will once again be back at the Mid America Trucking Show in Louisville, KY. We will look forward to seeing you there.

Time again for the Mid America Trucking Show

Posted by Linda Chambers on Tue, Mar 15, 2011 @ 09:56 AM

It is almost time for the largest trucking show in the US to be held again in Louisville, KY. This year it will run for three days March 31st to April 2nd at the Kentucky Expo Center.  Mid America Trucking Show web site.

There is scheduled to be over 1000 exhibitors of which Soap Warehouse will be one. We plan on introducing and demonstrating our newest line of products, graffiti cleaners to the trucking industry.

'Blast Off' will be demonstrated once an hour for almost the entire length of the show. This easy to use product is perfect for the individual O/O trucker to have in his rig to clean any painted graffiti tags that might pop up on his trailer while out on the road. Blast Off information video

'Shadow Away' is more for exterior building cleaning of graffiti from off of brick and other porous surfaces that graffiti makers may have tagged or to use when some other cleaner was unable to remove a tag leaving a shadow behind.

Soap Warehouse in Booth 62124 in the West Wing will also be having daily drawings for 'Big Rig Brite' truck wash and will once again have a prize wheel in the booth with prizes of smaller product samples, trucker gifts and our famous 'Brown Derby' hats that so many attendees wanted last year.

For information about all our great products at Soap Warehouse or to pre register for our booth drawings, Registration.

See you at the show.
