Smarter Drivers...Better Jobs

Providing excellence in Internet recruiting since 1996

Did you know TruckDriver.com is one of the oldest driver recruiting websites on the Internet?

Did you know that what began as a hobby in 1996, before many people had even heard of the Internet, is now the standard for online truck driver recruiting?

Did you know TruckDriver.com has been owned and operated from the beginning by truck drivers?

In 1975, Brian and Vona Thomforde got married and bought a truck. They drove team for North American Van Lines in the Household Good Division. In 1977 they switched to the High Value Products Division and began adding trucks to their operation. By the mid-nineties, they had 24 trucks on their fleet.

Around that time, Brian began looking for more efficient ways to attract drivers. The Internet seemed like a good place to post information so he registered TruckDriver.com as a domain name and started asking drivers to contact him.

By 2001, Brian and Vona had sold their last truck and were operating TruckDriver.com full time. Many prospective clients said, "Drivers don't know what the Internet is" or "Truck drivers don't use Internet" and while that was mostly true at the time, things changed very quickly.

TruckDriver.com is no longer a part-time hobby, it is a trusted online service providing truck drivers and truck driver recruiters all across the United States and Canada an opportunity to preview and review available drivers and driver opportunities.
