Since 2015, TopMark Funding has focused on helping the transportation industry secure the equipment needed to operate and grow. Our primary customer base consists of those in the transportation industry: Over the Road Trucking Companies, Intrastate Local Haul, and Vocational Transportation Vehicles. Truckers are the lifeblood of TopMark Funding and right now more than ever they are the lifeblood of this country.  Now, more than ever, it is important that we help you keep your trucks moving.

The transportation industry is undergoing changes in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Changes to the Transportation Industry 

Trucking companies are facing two different situations due to the COVID-19 outbreak:

Situation 1: Massive Demand for Essential Services

Those that are hauling essential goods like groceries, health & household products, and medical supplies are experiencing a boom. Their services are in high demand. The government has identified them as essential services, and regulations are being loosened to keep them on the road longer to keep up with the demand. We are seeing a lot of applications from these customers. That is good. With the addition of a reduction in the price of fuel these are viable companies. Unlike many other businesses in other industries during this COVID-19 situation, these businesses will not have to shut down. They will be very busy and benefit from strong cash flow during this time. Grocery stores around the country are selling out fast. For the first time in 82 years, the Federal Government has eased and nearly lifted Hour of Service regulations related to the trucking industry. The FMCSA’s statement that they are easing the hours of service regulations for truckers came on the heels of President Trump declaring a State of Emergency due to COVID-19. This was done to ensure that there is no slowdown in the supply chain. There is currently a huge demand for products to be shipped all throughout the nation. The FMCSA has posted the declaration in full here.

If you are one of the companies experiencing this influx of business and you need working capital to hire drivers, or equipment financing to purchase more trucks, we can help.

Situation 2: Slowing Demand/ Non-Essential Services

 We have seen a number of Companies that have slowed down and are putting their purchases on hold until COVID-19 passes. This makes sense for those that are typically hauling cargo deemed “non-essential goods.” These companies are worried about their revenue being impacted over the next few months.

If you are going through this situation, we would recommend considering a working capital loan. This will ensure  you have enough cash on hand to make it through this stressful time period. In addition, and if possible, we would also recommend that you consider sourcing some routes from the load boards that are helping to get the essential goods and services out to the marketplace. 

What This Means for Truckers

The overall market for trucking is strong. There is reason to believe it will get even stronger as the country comes out of the COVID-19 pandemic. The trucking industry, which is currently facing a large shortage of drivers, is one of the most vital and essential services the country relies on right now. Drivers are being stretched thin to keep up with the needs around the country. With gas prices heading to historic lows, the trucking industry is looking at an unprecedented boom. This means it is a good time for trucking companies to grow and expand their fleets!
