Georgia By The Numbers

What the census shows.

Georgia carriers hold 540,693 power units and report 395,074 drivers to FMCSA. 93% 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. 378 new interstate carriers registered in Georgia in July 2026, so the pool gets more crowded every month.

The top five cities hold 15% of the state's carriers. If you hire in those metros, you are recruiting against the densest competition in Georgia: check the city pages for the local numbers, or open the dashboard for the full state view.
