Ranked by disclosed equity funding and recent momentum, our directory of Trucking companies in the United States covers 2,982 tracked operators with $4.1B in total disclosed funding. No unicorns here. What you get instead is a sector defined by genuine scale: across 10 validated filers, the combined revenue pool hits $10.2B, with a median company revenue of $343M. Schneider National pulls $5.0B of that alone. Knight Transportation clocks $1.8B, Rush Enterprises $1.6B. These aren't funding-round numbers. They're earned revenue, and the gap between the top earners and the median tells you how concentrated this sector really is. Rush Enterprises and U-Haul Holding Co each punch well above the sector's $14M median net income, at 4x and 26x respectively, which I find more revealing than any headline raise.
Median revenue growth is flat, down roughly 1% year over year, and coverage trends confirm it: the sector isn't expanding, it's consolidating around operational themes like cargo compliance, fleet servicing, and accident management. And yet app installs across trucking and transportation categories are growing at a median of 20% annually across 505 tracked apps, so digital infrastructure is clearly outpacing the physical freight cycle. On the funding side, aifleet leads our directory at $52M, followed by Artur Express at $30M. The most active backers include the U.S. Department of Agriculture and DOE, which signals that public capital is shaping where private operators can go next.
