Market Served
ROADSTAR serves the over-the-road trucking industry, via distribution to truckstops; employees of trucking organizations, including owner/operators and truck drivers; students at truck-driver schools; and customers of truck dealerships.

Statement of Circulation
Qualified recipients are truckstop patrons, including owner/operators and company drivers, throughout the United States. Other qualified recipients are employees of trucking companies (truck drivers, leased owner/operators and other employees) who receive the publication through distribution at their fleet locations; students at truck-driver schools; and customers of truck dealerships.

ROADSTAR is shipped in bulk quantities to truckstops via two trucking companies; United Parcel Service and Target Media Partners. Truckstops redistribute the publicaitons, giving it out as part of a value-added program. Additional bulk shipments are made to trucking company fleet locations at no cost, for redistribution to their drivers, owner/operators and other employees; to truck-driver schools and truck dealerships.
Bulk copies audited only to the point of distribution, not to the end recipient. A written distribution agreement not more than three years old has been obtained indicating that the recipient at the point of distribution agrees to accept the magazine in bulk for redistribution.
