From discovering truck-friendly parking and pulling into fuel stops to locating weigh stations and rest areas, TruckMap is a comprehensive pocket co-pilot. With over 600,000 truck facilities including major networks like Walmart, Pilot / Flying J, Petro, Love's, Roady's, AM Best, TA TravelerCenters of America, alongside thousands of other trucker stops offering laundry, showers, and truck washes, you'll never miss a practical stop on the road.
The app also features real-time updates for truck-specific traffic, a wide network of freight options through a Freight Broker Marketplace with billions of dollars of freight listed annually, and the ability to bid, onboard carriers, and identify headhaul and backhaul freight opportunities. Filtering locations by parking type, truck washes, fuel, DEF lines, CAT Scales, air hoses, restrooms, showers, and more makes planning efficient and hassle-free.
Designed to meet the real-world needs of drivers, TruckMap integrates weather forecasts with routing so you can prep for weather-related disruptions and adjust routes in real-time. It’s not just about directions; it’s about turning every leg of a journey into a safer, more productive experience. In short, TruckMap is an indispensable trucker’s companion—a free, reliable, and constantly improving navigation tool built for the road ahead.
