Trucking
Website design for trucking and freight companies.
A trucking website has two audiences: shippers deciding whether to trust you with a load, and drivers deciding whether to apply. Most sites in this industry serve neither one well.
What the site has to handle
Authority and compliance details up front
MC number, DOT number, insurance limits, and safety rating. Brokers and shippers verify before they call, so make it easy to find.
Equipment and lanes described clearly
Dry van, reefer, flatbed, power only. Trailer counts and the lanes you actually run tell a shipper in seconds whether you fit.
A driver application that works from a phone
Drivers apply from the cab at a truck stop. A long desktop form loses them. Short, mobile first, with the option to finish later.
Separate paths for shippers and drivers
Two audiences, two journeys. Sending both through the same contact page frustrates everyone and buries your recruiting.
Rate quote requests with load details
Origin, destination, weight, equipment, pickup date. Collecting that upfront means you can quote without a phone tag chain.

Questions from this trade
- Can drivers upload their CDL and MVR?
- Yes, the application can accept file uploads so you get documents with the application instead of chasing them after.
- Do I need a load board or dispatch tool built in?
- That is Business Systems work. The marketing site comes first, then dispatch tooling can be added as a piece.
- Should I list pay on the careers page?
- Yes. Driver applications drop sharply when pay is hidden, and you get better fitting applicants when it is stated.
- Can the site handle both my carrier and brokerage sides?
- Yes, with clearly separated sections so neither audience gets confused about which one they are dealing with.
