A trucking business can either be a one person operation, or employ a large team. There are many different opportunities for a trucking company including commercial services, vehicle transport, livestock, water and other liquids, heavy hauling, and much more. There are also many different types of trucks and trailers that perform different functions.
Coming up with a good name for a truck company can be a fun, but challenging step when starting your new business. You may want to use your own name, such as “Jeff’s Trucking”, or you may choose to use the name of the town or city where your business will be located such as “Seattle Transport Services”. A catchy or humorous business name or logo is another option. Another idea is to have a creative tagline to go along with your business name. This can be helpful, especially if you want to specialize in a particular service but don’t want to limit your business. Try to choose a name for your trucking business that is easy for potential customers to remember and that is easy to spell.
Some words you could consider using in your trucking company name are “logistics”, “hauling”, “transport”, “carriers”, “freight”, and obviously, “trucking”. These words are most commonly associated to a trucking business when people hear them. You don’t necessarily have to limit yourself to those words though. As long as your marketing materials are clear, you shouldn’t need to worry about potential customers knowing what your business is about.
Below are some examples of both unique and basic trucking company names you can use as inspiration when choosing your own name. Some names may be already used in your area, or might be trademarked, so make sure you properly research the trucking name you are considering before registering it and having any marketing materials printed.
