OTR drivers spend weeks on the road burning through fuel, tires, and maintenance while brokers pay 45-60 days late. Between $5K weekly fuel costs and the constant wear on your rig — long-haul operators need capital that travels with them.
This Is Why You're Here
You’re running 10,000 miles a week and fuel costs $4,500-$6,000. Your top broker switched to net-60 payments. That’s $50K+ in outstanding freight bills while diesel doesn’t wait.
Your engine needs an in-frame overhaul — $18K-$25K. You’re 1,200 miles from home and the shop wants a deposit before they start. Every day parked costs $1,500 in lost loads.
You found a dedicated lane paying $3.20/mile — but the shipper requires a second truck. A used Freightliner Cascadia is $65K. Your bank won’t finance a second unit without 2 years of fleet history.
You’re running 3 trucks and your tire bill hit $14K this quarter. Two blowouts on I-40 last month cost you $3,200 in emergency roadside service plus $2,800 in lost loads. You need a maintenance reserve but every dollar goes to fuel and driver settlements.
Your top shipper just switched to net-60 payments and you’ve got $127K in outstanding invoices. Payroll for your 2 drivers is $9,400 this Friday and your fuel card balance is $11K. The freight is delivered — you just can’t get paid fast enough.
Broker owed me $92K and fuel was due Monday. Basecamp got me $75K in working capital in 18 hours. Didn't miss a single load that week.

Look. You're running 10,000 miles a week, burning through $5,000 in diesel, and your broker's sitting on $90K of your money for another 30 days. Your fuel card doesn't care about net-45. And your bank wants six weeks and two years of tax returns to approve a $50K line. That's not how OTR works.
Here's the thing — you don't need a bank that treats you like every other small business. You need a lender who understands that your Cascadia is a $95K revenue-generating asset, not a depreciating liability. We've funded $18K engine overhauls from truck stops, $65K second-truck purchases for dedicated lanes, and $75K fuel bridges when brokers went net-60. One application. 60 seconds. No hard pull. Your freight keeps moving.
60 seconds. No credit impact. No obligation.
