Write for Us – Trucking, Freight & Transport

Our write for us transport program is open to professionals across the industry, including:

• HGV and CDL drivers (UK and USA)
• Owner-operators, hauliers, and small fleet owners
• Freight forwarders, brokers, and dispatchers
• Logistics, warehousing, and supply chain managers
• Diesel mechanics and fleet maintenance technicians

You don’t need to be a professional writer. Industry knowledge matters more to us than polished prose.

Write for Us – Drivers

Drivers know the job better than anyone. If you drive an HGV in the UK or a truck in the USA, we want your first-hand advice on training, pay, routes, rest, safety, and life on the road. Our write for us drivers section is one of the most-read parts of the site, so your insights will reach the people who need them most.

Write for Us – Owner Operators

Running your own truck means handling business, compliance, and driving all at once. Through our write for us owner operators category, we welcome practical guides on getting authority, finding loads, managing fuel and maintenance costs, setting rates, and growing from one truck to a small fleet.

Whether you’re submitting a guest post freight article or a trucking how-to guide, your content must:

• Be 100% original and unpublished anywhere else. We check every submission for plagiarism.
• Be at least 1,200 words. In-depth guides of 1,500–2,500 words perform best.
• Be practical. Give readers clear steps, real examples, costs, and figures they can use.
• Be accurate and current. Back up regulations and statistics with reliable sources such as GOV.UK, DVSA, FMCSA, DOT, or recognised industry bodies.
• Specify the region. Rules differ between the UK and USA, so make clear which country your advice applies to, or cover both.
• Be well structured, with short paragraphs, clear H2/H3 subheadings, and bullet points or tables where helpful.
• Show real expertise. Purely AI-generated content without genuine human knowledge and editing will be rejected.
• Include images where possible: your own photos, or royalty-free images with credit.

• One relevant link to your website or profile is allowed in your author bio.
• In-content links must be relevant, useful to readers, and point to trustworthy sources.
