What is Swift Transportation Tracking?

Swift Transportation Tracking is the freight monitoring feature within the Knight-Swift digital ecosystem. It uses GPS data from Swift’s nationwide tractor-trailer fleet to provide real-time shipment visibility. Unlike standard courier tracking, our tracking tool follows full 53-foot trailers, helping shippers connect warehouses to receiving facilities and keep critical inventory on schedule.

Swift Transportation Tracking Number

To access your shipment data, you need the specific reference code associated with your freight order. Our tracking tool relies on these standard identifiers used in their network:

Load Number / Shipment ID: The primary 7-to-9 digit internal identifier assigned to the specific freight job.
Bill of Lading (BOL): The legal document number generated at pickup, often used as a tracking reference by the receiver.
Purchase Order (PO) Number: The reference number assigned by the shipper (the company sending the goods).
Trailer Number: The ID printed on the physical trailer (e.g., 531234), which allows dispatch to locate the asset via GPS.

About Swift Transportation

Founded in 1966 by Jerry Moyes, Swift Transportation began with a single truck hauling cotton in Arizona. Today, it is a publicly traded giant (NYSE: KNX) following its merger with Knight Transportation in 2017. The company is famous for its “Driver Academy,” training thousands of new CDL drivers annually.

Swift offers a wide array of services beyond standard dry vans. They operate a large Refrigerated (Reefer) fleet for food transport, Flatbed trucks for construction materials, and a growing Intermodal division that moves containers via rail. Their “Swift Logistics” arm also acts as a brokerage, hiring other carriers to move freight when their own trucks are full.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

No. Swift Transportation is the large US trucking company. “Swift Courier” is a common name used by many small, unrelated delivery firms worldwide (e.g., in Zimbabwe, India, or local US cities). Check your logo carefully.

Only if you are the shipper who booked that specific truck. For safety and privacy, the general public cannot track Swift trucks via GPS.

If you are a consumer (waiting for a home delivery), calling Swift will not help. They deal with the warehouse that shipped your item, not your home address. Contact the store you bought from.

Generally, no. Swift focuses on palletized freight. However, their flatbed division may occasionally move industrial vehicles, but they are not a standard “car hauler” for personal vehicles.
