I used to own Trailblazer Trucking back in the 90's and I am firing up again and that name is unavailable. If someone has a great idea and I end up using it, I will buy them a $100 gift certificate at the store of their choice.

Thanks

I guess I would shorten it up to Blaze Trucking then.

And that would move you farther up in the phone book too.

How about 'Speed of Light' Trucking, but you could shorten it to S.O.L Trucking....that way, if you are late on a delivery, you could say it stands for 'S**t Out of Luck' Trucking....:)

Do you want to make it sound like a mom and pop, sort of personalized (maybe funny), or do you want it to sound professional, like you have (or hope to have) 200 trucks? If the latter, don't use jokey or hokey names.

Stay away from crude or suggestive names. Why risk driving off even one customer? Baitfisher... bad girl! LOL

Perhaps name it after the city or geographical area you operate out of. That always makes it easy to remember, and makes you seem the biggest operator and most logical company to call. I think a customer might be more likely to call Alberta Hotshot than Fred's Hotshot if they are just going from the phone book.

That would be good for a mover, maybe Balls on trucking for a cattle liner.

I'm sure you get the idea. Figure what you will be hauling and maybe we can give a few hints.

By the way good luck with your new business. No crash trucking!

Coyote Hotshot it is.

Thanks to everyone for their great ideas.

I went with Coyote Hotshot for several reasons but none more than the great logo potential. Whether I go with some variation of our friend Wile E. Coyote (genius) or the howling varmint silouetted against the sunset or full moon, I figure I can't go wrong.

Once again thanks to all and I'm going to make a donation of $100 to the Stollery in AO's name to show my appreciation.

Regards
