Trucker Services:
Saving Money on Driver Services
for Professional Truck Drivers

Trucking services, also known as vehicle services, are for trucks. Trucker services, also known as driver services, are for truckers.

What driver services do professional truck drivers need, want and use? One of the pages under this section deals with how your actions -- or the lack thereof -- as a professional truck driver can affect your personal auto insurance rates. Find out the reason why and what you can do about it. Have a great idea about trucker services? Share it!

Over time, we'll explore some other services available, including these:

services available at truckstops and travel centers, such as showers, haircuts, shoe shines and using a laundromat for doing laundry; legal service plans, including commercial driver legal plans; accounting services for owner operators;  self-storage units; and what to look at if you become "homeless" by living in your truck full-time.

We cover telecommunications and telephone services separately.

Some of the services that professional drivers use can be used by anyone, such as truckstop fax services. Other services are specialized for commercial drivers. The availability of services for truckers is comprehensively summarized in the 2010 National Truck Stop Directory or The Trucker's Friend. It has a comprehensive overview of all truckstops in the USA. We find ourselves referring to our copy of this publication often.

Money saving tip: Just because you drive a "big rig" does not mean you should have to pay "big bucks" for products or services. We encourage you to evaluate your choices and be a wise steward. For example, assuming that you wear shoes that require a polish from time to time, how much money could you save by polishing your own shoes instead of having someone else do it for you?
