About Us:

Our website TruckDrivingJobs.com was born out of technology. Prior to establishing Trucking Unltd, one of our co-founders was a computer science major at the University of Southern California. Being a private school, the cost of attendance was far too much for him to afford. Due to his financial circumstances, the university itself awarded him a grant to cover 50% of his tuition. For the remainder, his only alternative seemed to be high-interest loans, until he found out about scholarships. After he resourced scholarships designed specifically for Computer Science majors, he was given several awards; enough to cover his entire tuition. Trucking Unltd would possibly not exist if he hadn't been able to afford school, but thanks to generous scholarships, we are here today and help hundreds of truck drivers find jobs each and every month. It is for this reason that we offer a $500 annual scholarship to help similar students in need.
