Being a truck driver can come with some pretty sweet deals. From discounted coffee to free showers, truck stops offer a variety of perks drivers can take advantage of while on the road.
On top of these truck stop discounts, companies like Schneider also offer deals to help truck drivers enjoy more savings on the road.
If you’re new to trucking, you may be wondering, ‘what other kinds of discounts do truck drivers receive?’ To answer, we’ve outlined some of the best deals and opportunities to make your time on the job even better.
Truck driver discounts at truck stops
One of the main ways truck drivers can save on the road is through truck stop discounts. Here is a closer look at what types of deals drivers can benefit from.
Pilot Flying J’s loyalty program works by using the truck stop’s app that can be downloaded onto your phone. The app tracks myRewards points you earn through fueling, and points translate to rewards like:
- Free showers.
- Free laundry.
- Free coffee.
- Free food at participating restaurants.
- Merchandise or services at the truck stops.
With Pilot Flying J’s Points Program, simply pushing ‘activate’ in the app at the beginning of each month can increase the number of points you earn each time you fuel. The myRewards Plus app also offers 10% off food and drink for veterans, military personnel and family members.
Plus, thanks to our partnership with Pilot Flying J, Schneider drivers who are members of the Pilot Flying J’s Points Program receive bonus points for birthdays and company anniversaries.
By picking up a My Love Rewards card at Love’s or Speedco, you can start earning points on fuel, food, drinks and more. The more you fuel and spend, the more rewards points you earn the next month. Points turn into shower credits and drink refill credits.
You can also connect your My Love Rewards card to the Love’s Connect App to unlock even more special features. For example, shower reservations and discounts on all restaurants owned and operated by Love's Travel Stops.
TA-Petro makes it easy to earn two, three and four times the points and rewards when fueling at their truck stops. Points can be used at travel stores, in restaurants, to reserve parking and more.
By downloading the TruckSmart app, you can also easily track UltraCredits that turn into rewards on fill-ups of 60 gallons or more.
Company perks for Schneider drivers
