Welcome to Truckers-Friend! Our site is now officially live. Human auditors are verifying providers.
Truckers-Friend isn’t a corporate project; it’s a defensive tool built from the reality of the highway. This platform was created to provide drivers with a zero-trust directory to mitigate the risks that come with a roadside breakdown.
Our foundation is built on the Delday name. Our founder, Billie, grew up within the operations of Delday Transport, a company owned and operated by his father, James Delday. Today, James is still out there on the asphalt, working long-hauls for an oil company. He deals with the same traffic, the same logbooks, and the same mechanical risks you do every single day.
Because we are still part of the industry, we don’t guess what drivers need—we know.
The roadside assistance industry is frequently complicated by out-of-state digital operators who lack physical infrastructure or local service bays. Relying on unverified digital listings during a breakdown can leave a driver highly vulnerable.
Truckers-Friend is here to change that. Our goal is to get a driver from a "State of Emergency" to "Vetted Help" in under 90 seconds. We provide a direct, verified line to real, physical tire shops and mechanics, cutting out unverified intermediaries.
A provider cannot buy their way onto this site. While basic digital traces put shops on our radar, earning our trusted verification tiers (like our Desk Verified and Kingpin Verified badges) requires passing the rigorous Kingpin Standard Audit.
We verify the shop has a legitimate service bay and physical tire inventory. If they cannot be verified as having a real physical presence, they do not reach our map as verified.
To earn our highest verification tier, a provider must accept major commercial payment methods. We strictly monitor for entities demanding unverified app-only or cash-only transfers prior to dispatch.
We cross-check DOT numbers and business registrations to ensure the entity is active, professional, and properly authorized.
Our directory relies on a strict driver complaint protocol. If a driver submits an incident report and our internal investigation sustains the complaint, that provider's listing is removed from our active directory.
We don't look at unreliable dispatchers as a tech problem; we look at them as a direct threat to our own. With James Delday still out there doing long-hauls, we know that every time a driver is misled, it could have been one of our own family members on that shoulder.
We’ve combined a lifetime of trucking heritage with high-performance technology to build a tool that is as rugged and reliable as the rigs it serves. We are on the shoulder with you.
Truckers-Friend: Grit, Not Grime. Verified, Not Just Listed.
