Observed lending records
Local general freight trucking: SBA lending profile
Historical financing evidence to examine alongside your operating plan.
NAICS 484110 covers local general freight across fleet sizes, equipment and markets. It does not identify this two-truck Texas format, customer demand, underwriting probability or unique borrowers.
Source: SBA 7(a) and 504 FOIA files, snapshot 30 June 2026. Recomputed from original records on 1 October 2026. FY2025 is the most recent complete fiscal year in these files. Definitions and exclusions.
What stands out in this category
In the complete FY2025 snapshot cohort, 621 of 645 disbursed-status records are 7(a): 96.3%. The remaining 24 are 504 records. Read this program mix before comparing the combined median with a project budget.
At least one program-specific financial median is suppressed because fewer than 25 valid observations remain. The count is still informative; borrowing a median from the other program would create a false comparison.
FY2024 has 827 records with disbursed status in the same snapshot; FY2025 has 182 fewer. This compares approval-year cohorts at one cutoff, not disbursements made in each year or customer demand. Recent cohorts have had less time to fund.
For the narrower connected operating case: Verify the two liftgate truck specifications, paid CDL coverage, empty mileage, dock time and customer collections before using a broad industry financing comparison. Historical lending activity does not answer that operating question. Bring quotations, measured capacity and local demand evidence to the financing discussion.
Separate 7(a) and 504
| Program | Records | Median amount | Median term | Amount represented |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 7(a) | 621 | $79,600 | 10.0 years | Total approved 7(a) loan |
| 504 | 24 | Not shown | Not shown | SBA/CDC portion only |
The combined median is a description of this mix. A 504 amount excludes the third-party loan and owner equity; it is not the property or project purchase price. The rate headline uses 621 7(a) records and describes the initial rate when approved.
How the loan amounts are distributed
| Approval amount band | Records | Share | Median amount | Median term |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Under $150,000 | 403 | 62.5% | $49,000 | 10.0 years |
| $150,000–$349,999 | 98 | 15.2% | $202,500 | 10.0 years |
| $350,000–$699,999 | 51 | 7.9% | $500,000 | 10.0 years |
| $700,000 and above | 93 | 14.4% | $1,473,400 | 10.0 years |
A single median hides small working-capital requests and larger asset-financing transactions. Use the bands and program split before deciding whether a comparison fits your project.

Where the lending records are located
| State | Records | Share of category | Median amount |
|---|---|---|---|
| CA | 74 | 11.5% | $239,600 |
| OH | 59 | 9.1% | $84,200 |
| IL | 51 | 7.9% | $45,000 |
| NY | 34 | 5.3% | $50,000 |

| NJ | 26 | 4.0% | $100,000 |
| MI | 24 | 3.7% | Not shown |
| WA | 22 | 3.4% | Not shown |
Small state samples retain their counts but suppress the median. High lending volume can reflect the size of a state or its financing mix; it does not by itself establish demand for another location.
Who is represented in the recent pool?
| Business-age group | Records | Share of known labels | Median amount | Median term |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Change of ownership | 100 | 4.1% | $988,000 | 10.0 years |
| Other reported business-age labels | 1,602 | 66.0% | $87,850 | 10.0 years |
| Startup or new-business labels | 726 | 29.9% | $46,000 | 10.0 years |
The startup/new-business group combines startup and new-business labels, including businesses up to two years old. It is not a pure count of unopened businesses. Change-of-ownership records have different risks and evidence from a greenfield startup.
Historical charge-offs: inspect the denominator
114 disbursed records have EXEMPT status and are excluded from this denominator. The remaining unknown or non-disbursed statuses are also excluded. This selection can bias the result. It is not the probability that a new business fails, not an applicant approval rate and not the percentage of dollars lost.
Bring the evidence into your plan
Verify the two liftgate truck specifications, paid CDL coverage, empty mileage, dock time and customer collections before using a broad industry financing comparison.
Build your request from quotations, site scope, owner contribution and monthly cash need. Compare the same program, period and project type before using a sector figure. The worked financing case, startup budget and operating-unit calculation connect a narrower format to its assumptions.
