We work with professional Owner Operators who want reliable freight, industry leading miles and the freedom to run their business their way at Forward. Spend less time waiting and more time earning with a premium customer base, 99% no-touch drop-and-hook freight, and an extensive terminal network.

Whether you are a Solo Owner Operator or a Team Owner Operator, Forward has the freight and the support to keep your wheels turning.

Why Owner Operators Choose Forward:

Earn More: Competitive Pay on All Miles + Weekly Settlements

  • Solo Owner Operators
  • $1.31 per loaded mile + Fuel Surcharge
  • Projected annual earnings: $160,000–$200,000+

Fuel Surcharge

  • Average $0.40–$0.60 per mile
  • Weekly update to help offset the cost of fuel

Drive More. Wait Less.

  • We’ve built our network to keep you moving.

Industry-Leading Weekly Miles

  • Teams: 5,000+ miles per week
  • Solo: 2,000+ miles per week

Freight You'll Appreciate

  • 99% no-touch freight
  • Drop & hook operations from terminal-to-terminal
  • Average load weight of only 26,000 lbs.
  • Year-round consistent freight
  • Flexible home time

We've Got Your Back

Forward invests in Owner Operators so you can focus on running your business.

Additional Benefits

  • Weekly settlements
  • Tolls, bridges, and scales paid or reimbursed
  • Safety-first culture
  • Quarterly safety bonus opportunities
  • Annual safety giveaways—including the chance to win a car!
  • A genuine partnership with a culture of support when you need it

What You'll Need

  • Valid Class A CDL
  • Minimum 12 months of verifiable Class A CDL tractor-trailer experience
  • Minimum age of 23 years
  • Meet all DOT qualification requirements

Why Forward?

Forward is built on a foundation of Independent Contractors. Your truck is your business, we know that. That's why we've built an operating model focused on helping Owner Operators increase their revenue through consistent freight, efficient operations and one of the strongest terminal networks in the industry.

If you want to work with a carrier that respects your time, your equipment and your success, we want to talk.
