The number one largest public trucking carrier in the United States is UPS, with over 100,000 company trucks, vans, company cars and motorcycles. Number two is FedEx with 58,500 tractors, straight trucks and vans and 21,400 trailers, according to the industry trade magazine Transport Topics.
Private trucking carriers transport their own products, as opposed to public carriers that haul for others. Whether or not a company is considered a “trucking company” by the general public, any commercial truck operating in the US is regulated by stringent state and also federal trucking laws if they cross state lines in commerce.
