Florida By The Numbers

What the census shows.

Florida carriers hold 541,769 power units and report 449,009 drivers to FMCSA. 95% of the state's fleets run 10 trucks or fewer, which means the driver market here is mostly small operators outbidding each other for the same pool. 617 new interstate carriers registered in Florida in July 2026, so the pool gets more crowded every month.

The top five cities hold 30% of the state's carriers. If you hire in those metros, you are recruiting against the densest competition in Florida: check the city pages for the local numbers, or open the dashboard for the full state view.
