Trucker Resources: Operations & Tech

Once you land the right trucking job, the real work starts: finding good freight, running efficient lanes, and staying compliant on every mile. That takes the right tools: load boards to keep your trailer booked at solid rates, truck-ready GPS to route safely and hit ETAs, dash cams to protect you on the road, and ELDs to manage HOS and inspections. This operations & tech resources hub brings those essentials together so you can compare the best load boards, GPS options, dash cams, and ELDs in one place.

Load Board Resources

Load boards are how you keep your trailer full and your rates up. The right board helps you match freight to your equipment and lanes, filter out cheap or risky loads, and cut deadhead miles. Use the guides below to compare options for semis, box trucks, and cargo vans, find free boards when you’re starting out, and build a daily load-hunting workflow that fits your business.

Trucking GPS Resources

GPS is how you avoid low bridges, plan legal routes, hit ETAs, and cut deadhead miles. Below you’ll find guides that compare truck-specific GPS units and apps, explain core features (truck routing, offline maps, real-time traffic, geofencing), and show how to integrate GPS with your ELD, dash cam, and dispatch tools. Use these resources to pick a setup that fits your lanes, budget, and business stage.

Trucking Dash Cam Resources

Dash cams protect your CSA score, speed up claims, and coach safer driving. Below you’ll find guides that compare truck-ready dash cams and features like dual-facing lenses, night vision, GPS tagging, G-sensor event capture, and cloud video. Use these resources to choose a system that fits your lanes, insurance needs, budget, and integrates with your ELD and GPS.

Trucking ELD Resources

ELDs (Electronic Logging Devices) are how you prevent HOS violations, breeze through inspections, and keep loads moving. Use the resources below to help you choose a system that fits your lanes, integrates with your dash cam and GPS, and scales from O/O to fleet.
