Why Drive for Forward Air?

At Forward Air, Owner Operators aren't just drivers, they're business partners. Forward is built around helping Owner Operators run a stronger, more profitable operation, with programs designed to offset rising industry costs and keep more revenue where it belongs, in your pocket.

  • 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.
