Trucking in Michigan
Michigan's trucking economy is inseparable from automotive — Detroit is the center of North American auto manufacturing, requiring just-in-time parts delivery networks connecting OEMs and Tier 1/2 suppliers across the Midwest. I-94, I-75, and I-96 are the primary corridors. Key commodity flows: auto parts, steel, raw materials, and finished vehicles.
Your online presence
Own the page people find when they search your company.
Every company in this directory has an FMCSA record. Far fewer have a site of their own — so the record is all a broker, shipper or driver finds when they look you up. A website is where your authority, insurance, equipment and contact details live, in your words rather than a government form’s.
- ✓ $274 one-time — you own the site outright
- ✓ First year of hosting included, $150/yr after
- ✓ Your authority, insurance and equipment, presented properly
- ✓ Live in 5–7 business days. No contracts, no monthly fees.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many active trucking carriers operate in Michigan?
There are 73,396 active FMCSA-registered trucking carriers based in Michigan, across 1,830 cities.
How can I verify a Michigan trucking carrier is licensed and insured?
Every carrier listed on this page has an active FMCSA USDOT number. To verify operating authority, insurance, and safety record, check FMCSA SAFER (safer.fmcsa.dot.gov/CompanySnapshot.aspx) using the carrier's DOT number. For broker authority and BIPD insurance status, use the FMCSA L&I Public Lookup (li-public.fmcsa.dot.gov). Cross-reference safety scores via the FMCSA SMS (ai.fmcsa.dot.gov/SMS).
What is the typical fleet size of a Michigan trucking carrier?
Most US trucking carriers are small fleets — over 90% operate fewer than 6 trucks. Among the 73,396 active Michigan carriers, fleet sizes range from owner-operators with a single truck to large carriers with hundreds of power units. The top 100 by fleet size are listed above, sorted by reported power units.
Does Michigan have specific commercial vehicle regulations?
Federal Bridge Formula rules and 80,000 lb maximum gross vehicle weight apply on Interstate highways in Michigan. State-specific permits are required for oversize/overweight loads, and some states enforce additional emissions, hours-of-service, or weight enforcement rules. Carriers should consult the Michigan Department of Transportation for current commercial vehicle requirements.
