Trucking
Truckers
are the backbone of Transport Tycoon. We’ve developed a complex web of cargo materials that allow you to simply sell one at a time, or collect and combine cargoes in multi-point routes for maximum profit!
Be sure to ask around for helpful guides developed by the community. Oh, and we also have a custom radio station! We offer TruckersFM, available in the left-bottom-center area of the radio wheel.

Basic Process for Trucking Cargo
Go to the Cargo Seller to obtain your cargo, load as much as you can in your vehicle (Don't know how? visit the “Getting Started Guide”) and head to the Cargo Buyer to sell it!
| Trucking Cargo | Trucking Level Required |
|---|---|
| Tools | 1 (1kg each) |
| Erasers | 3 (3kg each) |
| Logs ➡ Sawdust | 6 (60kg each) |
| Recycled Trash | 9 (90kg each) |
| Toxic Waste | 11 (110kg each) |
| Recycled Electronics | 13 (130kg each) |
| Quarry Rubble | 15 (150kg each) |
| Methamphetamine | 17 (40kg each) |
Logs, Recycled Trash, Toxic Waste, Recycled Electronics, Quarry Rubble, and Methamphetamine are all part of more in-depth trucking routes. Make sure to have a look at the Advanced Cargo Routes section.
Logging
Logging is unlocked at level 6, this is the first type of trucking where there are multiple steps in the process.
You want to pick up Logs from the Logging Camp, take the Logs to the Sawmill to turn them into Sawdust or Planks. Both the Sawdust and the Planks can be sold at the LS Port Export or stored in Self Storages to be combined with other items
Recycled Materials Base Process
At level 9 you will unlock Recycled Trash, this can be picked up from the Recycling Center.
You want to take the Recycled Trash to the Sorting Facility to obtain three materials from it.
Plastic can be exported from the McKenzie Export.
Copper and Gold can be refined at the LS Foundry.
Refined Tin and Refined Aluminium are exported from the LS Port Export.
From here, the process will evolve allowing more materials and new combinations of materials. The more steps the process has, the more you will earn from it.
Item descriptions and exploration of the different locations should lead you on to new processes.
This is a flowchart showing one of the Level 13 Electronics processes:
Advanced Cargo Routes
A guide on advanced cargo, where to find them, craft them, sell them, and what you need for them.
Level 9 Trucking required for Recycled Trash - 90kg
Level 11 Trucking required for Toxic Waste - 110kg
Level 13 Trucking required for Recycled Electronics - 130kg
Level 15 Trucking required for Quarry Rubble - 150kg
Video guides for some of the trucking routes such as Batteries and Concrete can be found on the Youtube Tutorials page.
Jewelry
Jewelry is created from Quarry Rubble at the Quarry and Recycled Electronics at the Electronics Store, and sold at the Jewelry Store.
Batteries
Batteries are created from Quarry Rubble of the Quarry, Recycled Trash of the Recycling Center and Toxic Waste of the LSIA Waste Depot.
Premium Trucking Routes
There are Currently 3 Tycoon Premium Trucking Routes.
Concrete
Concrete is created from Quarry Rubble from the Quarry, Logs from a Logging Camp, Unfiltered Water from the Land Act Reservoir and Toxic Waste from the Elysian Island Waste Deposit. It can be sold at the Alta Construction Site.
Rebar
And then there is also the Rebar Route.
House
The House route uses every Advanced Trucking Route and all other Premium Trucking Routes and makes them to one ultimate Route. It requires Tycoon Premium and Lvl 100 Trucking to complete. Houses can be made at the House Construction Site.
Trucking Sub-types
Some trucking sub-routes require a trucking sub-job as well. These jobs can be acquired at the Trucking HQ 
. There are several trucking sub-jobs available:
- Commercial
- Refrigerated
- Military
- Petrochemical
- Illegal
- Master
It is also possible to change sub-job by using a Trucker's PDA. They can be obtained by buying it on the Marketplace, buying from a player and is also a possible reward from a Treasure Chest (Daily).
The master sub-job is obtained at 1,000,000 (1M) trucking experience, and allows you to see all (sub-)trucking transformers at once.
Trucking (Refrigerated)
Airline Meals redirects here, for the dedicated Airline Meal page, visit Airline Meal.
Refrigerated trucking unlocks at level 10 Trucking and allows food to be shipped or used as airline meals. Meat can be either Meat, the end-product of Hunting, or Fish Meat from Fishing. Airline Meals can also be used as a bonus item for the Airline Pilot job. Refrigerated trucking adds the following cargo sellers:
| Cargo | Weight | Location |
|---|---|---|
| Vegetables | 15kg | Great Chaparral Farm |
| Dairy Products | 15kg | Grapeseed Farms |
Refrigerated trucking has the following trucking routes:

| Cargo | Weight | Location | Sub-Job |
|---|---|---|---|
| Crude Oil | 150kg | LS Oil Pumping Station | Petrochemical Trucking |
| Raw Gas | 150kg | GSD Gas Pumping Station | Petrochemical Trucking |

SD-Cards
SD Cards were added in the November 10th update in 2021. SD Cards are mainly used to unlock new routes for the Trucking job.
Ways To Obtain SD Cards
1. Prospecting (Prospecting) - To prospect simply go in game and find a white circle on the map, and press E to start prospecting. (Make sure you own a prospecting scanner.)
2. Daily Chests - This is another way of getting a SD Card. (To get your daily chests you simply login everyday)
3. Player To Player (Marketplace) - This is the easiest way to obtain encrypted SD Cards & decrypted SD Card Recipes. (Can only be done via marketplace as SD Cards are untradeable! )
How do SD Cards work
1. When you got a Encrypted SD Card you need to keep them in your Inventory.
2. Then go to the FIB Building. In the entrance area you will see a green Marker next to the Desk where you can decrypt SD-Cards (Start Scan), see what Secrets you have unlocked already (View learned Secrets) and check your current scan (Check Scan).
3. Choose "Start Scan" and choose the decrypting method. You can choose between the following options:
- Instant Scan (0h) = $1,000,000,000 (ONE TIME USE)
- Slow Scan (48h) = FREE
- Regular Scan (12h) = $200,000,000
- Fast Scan (4h) = $1,000,0000,000
4. After the scanning Time you should have the Decrypted SD Card in your Inventory. IF NOT: Go to the FIB Building again and choose "Check Scan"
5. If you want to learn the secret recipe of the SD Card you got choose it in your Inventory and hit "Unlock secret". You have learned the secret recipe now and the SD Card will disappear.
