Recruiting Services for Owner Operators
Receive researched trucking-company profiles matched to your equipment, location, preferred lanes, operating area, freight preferences, and business goals.
Owner-Operator Recruiting Support
Finding a trucking company is not only about locating a carrier that works with owner-operators. The company’s freight, operating lanes, compensation, deductions, trailer arrangements, home-time structure, and qualification requirements must also fit your operation. Owner Operator Connections provides specialized recruiting support for independent owner-operators looking for trucking-company opportunities.
Our recruitment service helps identify potential companies, research available opportunity information, compare company requirements, and prepare organized recruiting profiles based on your preferences.
You receive the profiles and decide which trucking companies you want to contact.
