road atlas

There is a Large Scale one and a Regular Motor Carriers Atlas.

 

seeing how your profile says "47" perhaps the large scale version... (like me)

 

and from another "older" one here,be sure a get the laminated pages.

 

A gps 4 truckers

 

forget that gps junk. get the randy motor carrier with laminated pages. it has all the routes route restrictions and contact info scale locations rest areas. my atlas has never let me down multiple GPS systems have though....

 

Your smartphone

 

A computer

 

Get the rand mcnally large scale atlas first then you can use that in conjunction with the computer or smartphone to plan your routes even then not every single low bridge is listed in downtown areas so you may also need to call the receiving departments of your customers as well to double check your directions .

 

Nothing wrong with those other things.
I wouldn't go without the Motor Carriers Atlas though.
Especially if you're new.

I just replaced my 2011 Atlas that was falling apart.
