The American Trucking Associations has worked on regulatory issues from the Code of Fair Competition in 1934 to the eventual deregulation of the industry.
When the trucking industry in the U.S. was deregulated in 1980, shippers and those wanting to enter the industry as carriers and trailer rental companies alike benefited from the changes.

After the Motor Carrier Act of 1980, there were 18,000 regulated trucking companies.
Following the Motor Carrier Act of 1980, which deregulated the trucking industry, Tom Weisz founded TMW Systems in 1983.
