  • Freight that's easy on your truck. Run 99% no-touch, drop and hook freight averaging just 26,000 pounds, meaning less wear and tear on your equipment and more of your revenue staying in your pocket.
  • Best-in-class miles. Solo Owner Operators average 2,500 miles per week across Forward's closed terminal network of 100+ nationwide locations, keeping you moving and earning consistently. Drivers are typically out on the road 2 to 3 weeks at a time.

  • A network built to keep you earning. Routes run exclusively between Forward's nationwide terminal locations, supporting some of the strongest average annual revenue in the industry for Owner Operators who partner with Forward.

*All pay & bonus amounts may vary by job type, location, experience level, and performance and are subject to change based on company discretion. Talk with a recruiter to confirm specific details.
