But in reality that is not correct. The largest industry as it happens is mostly comprised of small trucking companies. That is the case because the U.S. robust economy is providing many options and plans for small business financing.
Thereupon, the small trucking companies are surviving in this industry. Actually small companies are merely the ones that are providing the best working conditions and salaries to truck drivers.
Sageworks which is a financial analysis software company, has come up with the result that in U.S. there are in fact two types of small trucking businesses.
The first type of small trucking business is covering in fact 25% of the overall sales; these trucking companies are covering wide range of merchandise.
Whereas, the second type of small trucking companies are mainly dedicated to the building and construction materials. These trucking companies, unlike the first type are covering a smaller range of merchandise. To be more precise the trucking companies that are part of the second type small businesses are covering around 19% of merchandise.
