Why does the trucking segment matter to funders?
The equipment and freight change the deal. A reefer trailer is judged partly on its refrigeration unit, a lowboy on its price and your heavy-haul experience, and a hot shot rig on a pickup and gooseneck rather than a Class 8 tractor. Funders also look at how steady each segment's freight is and how it pays.

What if my operation runs more than one type of freight?
Many carriers do. A regional fleet might run dry vans and a few flatbeds, or an owner-operator might start in hot shot and move up to a semi. Apply with your whole operation in view. Funders look at the business overall, then at the specific equipment you want to add.

Frequently asked questions
Does FastRoute Capital work with owner-operators?
Yes. Owner-operators buying their own truck, and single-truck carriers adding a second, are a core part of who we help. Fleets adding trucks, trailers and drivers are too.
Do you fund non-trucking businesses?
No. FastRoute Capital focuses only on trucking operations, from one-truck owner-operators to growing fleets and specialized carriers.
What if my segment is not listed?
Dump trucks, intermodal drayage, box trucks and other trucking operations can still apply. The listed segments are the most common, but funders review each carrier's equipment and freight individually.
