$15/truck/month, published on the site. No quote call, no volume tier, no annual renegotiation — which matters most when you run fewer than 20 trucks.

Fuel discounts, invoice factoring, freight booking, CDL driver hiring, and insurance quotes run through the ELD Hub network. HOS247 is ELD software only.

Frequently asked questions
Is ELD Hub FMCSA-registered like HOS247?
Yes. Both appear on the official FMCSA ELD registration list, so both pass DOT roadside inspection in every state. The differences are pricing, bundled tools, and support model — not compliance.
Can I keep my HOS247 hardware and move to ELD Hub?
If your trucks run a PT-30 or IOSiX OBD-II device, yes — both are provider-configurable and we re-register them free. Call 302-404-1177 with the serial number so we can verify your exact model rather than guess.
How much does HOS247 cost compared to ELD Hub?
HOS247 quotes per fleet, so there is no single list price to compare. ELD Hub is a flat $15/truck/month with IFTA and DVIRs included — compare that against the all-in total on your current invoice, not the headline rate.
Does ELD Hub include IFTA?
Yes, IFTA fuel tax reporting is part of the $15/truck/month base plan with no add-on fee.
How long does switching from HOS247 take?
Under an hour per truck when reusing hardware you already own, or about two days if a $150 PT-30 has to ship. HOS and IFTA go live the same day you finish pairing.
What do I need to do before I cancel?
Export your last six months of RODS from HOS247 — FMCSA requires you to retain them — and swap the cab card packet with ELD Hub's user manual, malfunction procedure, and data-transfer instructions.
