Where Would We Be Without Our VTC Members?

Starting a Virtual Trucking Company (VTC) is easier said than done. On TruckersMP, it takes just a few clicks and confirmations to create one. You can launch with a small group—maybe five people—and off you go. But how do you grow from there?

As a Global Cargo member, I haven’t experienced that early process firsthand. We began as a verified VTC right from the start, because we grew out of an already established division of a larger VTC. We’re still incredibly grateful that we had the opportunity to take that leap—and that we were allowed to take it at the time.

Within any VTC, you see a wide variety of people come and go. Some stay for months or even years, while others pass through more quickly. And there are many types of members: some love attending as many events as humanly possible, while others prefer single-player with dozens of mods loaded in. Fortunately, our VTC offers something for everyone, no matter your style of trucking.

A Community Made Possible by Our Platforms

Luckily, we have several platforms where we can share this slightly crazy, out-of-hand trucking hobby of ours. Without TruckersMP, hosting events on the scale we do simply wouldn’t be possible. And Discord is our lifeline: a place where you can chat through text, but also—if you dare—join a voice channel and talk with fellow drivers.

And it’s not just truck-related discussions. Sometimes we end up deep in philosophical conversations about life, the universe, and everything in between. There’s a core group who regularly joins voice, but don’t hesitate to hop in yourself. Don’t think, “There are already three people in there, I don’t want to disturb them.” No—really—just join us. Listen for a bit, see what’s going on, and when there’s a natural pause, feel free to introduce yourself.

We do offer our platform in two languages. We started as a Dutch VTC, but we welcome international members from all over the world. And believe me—anyone who doesn’t speak English as their first language finds that first step intimidating. But we help each other, we support each other, and that’s what keeps our community thriving.

You Make the VTC Possible

I’ve talked a lot about what’s possible within the VTC—but did you know none of this would exist if you hadn’t joined?

We truly mean it when we say: thank you. Your presence—whether you’re active every day or just popping in occasionally—makes our VTC what it is. Without you, we simply wouldn’t exist.

So here’s to you, our members, our drivers, our community. We’re grateful for every mile we drive together.
