LeadQuasar's Trucking category holds 1,305 contacts, and 879 of them (67%) have an email address. These are person-level records with a name and job title, and "Owner" is the most common title. Most trucking-company contacts actually sit in the separate Transportation & Storage industry: 46,037 contacts at 5,274 US companies with carrier-style names, so a serious trucking list uses both.
Two datasets, and why a trucking-only search falls short
Plenty of carriers never call themselves "trucking". They trade as freight, logistics, transport, express, hauling or "Lines", and those companies are filed under Transportation & Storage rather than Trucking. That is where most trucking-company contacts are.
| Dataset | Contacts | What it is |
|---|---|---|
| Trucking | 1,305 | Records filed directly under Trucking, in 29 states |
| Transportation & Storage, trucking-named companies | 46,037 (at 5,274 companies) | Companies whose names contain trucking, freight, transport, logistics, express, carrier, hauling, lines, delivery, fleet, cargo or dispatch |
| Transportation & Storage, all | 135,162 | Includes warehousing, storage and other transport businesses |
The Trucking category is a small, focused list. Use it as a starting point in the states it covers, then widen to Transportation & Storage contacts and scan the company names for the carrier terms above.
Texas shows the gap clearly. The Trucking category has only 7 Texas records, while Transportation & Storage in Texas has 12,477 contacts. Of those, 4,401 work at 436 trucking-named companies, and 1,250 of them hold an Owner, President or CEO title. If you sell to Texas carriers, start there.
Where the Trucking list is concentrated
The Trucking category covers 29 states, and two of them hold most of the records.
| State | Contacts | With email | With phone |
|---|---|---|---|
| Florida | 390 | 390 | 214 |
| Ohio | 382 | 382 | 192 |
| Pennsylvania | 187 | 16 | 160 |
| New York | 157 | 15 | 125 |
| California | 79 | 9 | 72 |
| New Jersey | 40 | 3 | 35 |
Kentucky adds 8 more. The split matters for how you reach people. Every Florida and Ohio record has an email, so those two states suit an email sequence. Pennsylvania, New York, California and New Jersey are phone lists: few emails, plenty of numbers.
The records also cluster in a handful of metros. Philadelphia accounts for 181 of Pennsylvania's 187 contacts, and Los Angeles for 75 of California's 79. New York City has 92. In Ohio the list spreads across Cleveland (61), Cincinnati (49) and Columbus (46); in Florida, Jacksonville (52), Miami (43), Tampa (36) and Orlando (29).
Who is actually in the list
This is an owner-heavy list. The most common titles:
- Owner (170)
- President (32)
- Business Owner (16)
- Co-Owner (12)
- Chief Executive Officer (11)
- Owner And Operator (11)
- President And Owner (9)
- Owner Operator (8)
- Operations Manager (8)
80% of the records carry a person's name, so you can open with a name rather than "to whom it may concern". The titles tell you the shape of the business: at most of these companies the person who answers to "Owner" also signs the fuel card agreement, picks the insurance broker and decides whether to switch factoring companies. Operations managers run the day. They can tell you what hurts, but the owner usually signs.
"Owner Operator" and "Owner And Operator" often mean the owner drives. That person is in a cab for much of the week. A voicemail with one clear reason to call back beats a long email they will read at a truck stop.
Pitch what costs them loads or cash
People who sell to carriers tend to sell one of a short set of things: fuel cards, freight factoring, truck insurance, ELD and telematics, parts and repair, dispatch services, and driver recruiting. Every one of those pitches lands better when it names a concrete problem:
- Cash flow. Brokers pay slowly. Factoring and fuel programs sell on getting paid sooner or spending less at the pump.
- Uptime. A truck sitting in a shop earns nothing. Repair networks, parts suppliers and telematics sell on getting it rolling again.
- Renewals. Insurance is a recurring decision. Ask when the policy renews and call back before that date.
- Drivers. A growing fleet needs people in its seats. Recruiting services sell on trucks that stop sitting empty.
Keep the first message short and plain. One sentence on who you are, one on the problem, one question. Carrier owners get a steady stream of offers, and a vague "partnership" email gets deleted. Our cold email guide covers the structure in more detail, and you should follow CAN-SPAM and any state rules that apply.
