Member Testimonials
From phenomenal networking opportunities, to exclusive industry analysis and education resources, to programs developed specifically with your business in mind, members of Truckload Carriers Association attest to the value inherent in an active membership.
TCA's Scholarship Fund
 |
"In my 20 years in the trucking industry, I have seen the Truckload Carriers Association provide significant value in many ways, from advocacy to continuing education and from benchmarking to networking. But it is my belief that there is no greater value and better reason to be a member of the TCA than its Scholarship Fund ... a program that literally helps fund the next generation of professionals, not only in trucking, but in other worthy industries as well."

TCA's Education Programs
 |
"With TCA, however, the modest amount paid annually has been returned many times over in valuable networking, knowledge, and representation. In short, investing in membership in TCA has been a very good business decision. Some of the greatest value has come from the education programs TCA has produced. There is not a more cost-effective way to learn about critical industry issues. When you combine that with the regular information about key industry issues—information that comes in nearly real time as it happens in Washington and elsewhere—I cannot imagine where we would be without TCA."

TCA's Web Resources
 |
"The one thing that for me is handier than pockets on this Web site is the searchable list of carriers. When we need help because one of our trucks is having an issue in a state that we are unfamiliar with, we go to Member Directories and pull up every TCA member in that state. I always get a friendly greeting when I start my conversation with, 'I looked you up on the TCA Web site.'"

TCA's Networking Opportunities & Young Transportation Executives Program
 |
"TCA also offers a great opportunity for trucking's next generation. As part of that younger generation, I participate in the Young Transportation Executives program and have found it to be very beneficial in developing relationships and learning how TCA operates, how the legislative process works, and how TCA interacts with other associations. TCA presents an excellent overall package--camaraderie, a good mix of networking and educational opportunities, and legislative and political representation. Companies of all sizes will benefit from TCA membership."

TCA's Benchmarking Program
 |
"Benchmarking has helped us identify a variety of areas that needed improvement, even though we had thought they were performing well. For example, during a meeting focused on maintenance, a colleague shared a best practice designed to cut reefer costs. Since the meeting had shown us that our numbers were not quite what they could be, we decided to implement the idea. It saved us more than $.05 per mile."

TCA's Division Memberships & Leadership Opportunities
"Safety has always been an issue that no one minds sharing information about, but TCA’s division is one of the most informative and innovative of any safety group that I have been involved in. Fairfield has also been involved in a second division—Independent Contractor—and I have become an active member of TCA’s Board of Directors. These experiences have proven to me that TCA, for its reasonable dues, offers more than any other association our company has been involved in. If you want a real voice in this industry, as most of us do, along with meetings that solidify relationships with other carriers and service providers, then there is no other place to look than TCA."
