Websites for Trucking & Hauling Companies
Shippers, brokers, and general contractors check you out before they call — and so do the drivers you're trying to hire. For a trucking company, a website isn't marketing fluff; it's what makes you look like the established operation you already are.
We build websites for Alberta trucking companies — highway freight, local hauling, and hotshot work (expedited smaller loads, usually on a one-ton and gooseneck): what you haul, where you run, the equipment you bring, and a dispatch number that's easy to hit from a phone.
The people checking you out
Shippers and brokers vetting you for freight. Before a load or a contract, somebody looks you up. A company with a clean site, real equipment photos, and clear coverage reads as an operation; a company with nothing reads as a gamble.
Procurement people who need the paperwork. General contractors and larger shippers want to know the compliance and insurance details serious customers ask about — and they want to find them without phoning around.
Drivers deciding whether to apply. Hiring is half the battle in this industry, and drivers research an outfit the same way customers do. Well-kept equipment and a straight-shooting careers page do quiet recruiting work all year.
What a trucking website needs
- What you haul and what you run — services and an equipment list, with photos of your actual trucks and trailers, not stock shots of someone else's fleet
- Where you run — lanes, regions, and service area stated plainly, matching your Google listing
- Dispatch, front and centre — a number that dials on tap, with after-hours expectations spelled out
- The paperwork signals — insurance, safety program, and the compliance details contract customers expect to see referenced
- A drivers page — who you are to work for, what you run, and a simple way to apply
Hiring drivers is half the battle
Worth its own mention: the same website that wins freight also recruits. A careers page with real photos of your equipment and yard, a couple of honest sentences about how you treat drivers, and an application form that works on a phone — that's often worth more than another job-board posting.
What it costs
Most trucking company websites land between $1,000 and $4,000 to design and build, plus a hosting & care plan from $179/month — hosting, security, updates, backups, and someone to call. Fixed quote before any work starts.

Questions we hear a lot
What does a trucking company website cost?
Most land between $1,000 and $4,000 to design and build, plus a hosting & care plan from $179/month — hosting, security, updates, backups, and someone to call. Fixed quote before work starts.
We get our work through brokers and word of mouth. Why bother?
Keep both — the site doesn't replace them, it backs them up. When a broker or shipper is choosing between two carriers, the one who looks established gets the call. And the site works on the hiring side too, which word of mouth alone can't.
What should actually be on it?
What you haul, what you run (with photos of your own equipment), where you operate, the compliance and insurance details contract customers ask about, and a dispatch number that dials on tap. Five or six pages done right beats twenty pages of filler.
Can you build a drivers / careers page?
Yes — and we'd push for it. Real photos of your equipment and yard, straight talk about how you run, and an application form that works from a phone. Drivers check you out the same way customers do.
What photos do we need?
Your trucks, your trailers, your yard — phone photos are fine if the equipment's clean. We'll tell you exactly what to shoot. Never stock photos of someone else's fleet; drivers and brokers can both tell.
How long does it take?
Two to four weeks for a typical site, mostly depending on how fast the photos and service details come together.
Do you work outside Central Alberta?
Yes — We're based in Red Deer and web work travels well. If your trucks run province-wide or beyond, the site can too.
