Truck Stop / In-Cab Scanning

You can scan bills of lading, fuel tickets, and logs directly to us for processing at no cost to you! Scan in cab or at Love’s, Petro, Pilot Travel Centers, Travel Centers of America, or Flying J.

Testimonials

“They’ve got so many tools that can help you be successful. They’ve got professional people. Hard working professional people that you work with that respect you.

Once you prove yourself to Tennessee Steel Haulers that you’re a worker, that you’re going to do the job professionally, everybody from management to the freight specialist to everybody that works here is going to bend over backwards to help you be professional. That’s very important.”

Claude Clements, Owner Operator

“I veered off a few times, tried some other options, but always came home. This is home to me. I just never had a need to go anywhere else because they always treated me right.

You aren’t going to find a better job than Tennessee Steel Haulers. That’s just it. From the businessside of it, if you turn a load in, you get your pay. I’m here until I retire. Point blank. I’ll be here.”

Paul Douthit, Owner Operator

“I was with another company and I hit rock bottom. I was introduced to TSH from another driver that I had seen at a truck stop while getting fuel. That driver talked to me about the benefits and opportunities that Tennessee Steel Haulers had to offer. I took is as an angel that was sent.

I had suffered enough. I had nothing else to loose and when I came to TSH and I was welcomedwith open arms. I proceeded to the opportunity myself to see how good of a company it was.And here I am today, I own two homes, I have several cars and I’m still blessed. Like I said,I’m taking advantage of the opportunity they gave me three years ago.”

Erich Hancock, Owner Operator
