The tractor trailer conveyor system is installed as a flooring surface within the trailer. The tractor trailer conveyor system allows for the loading and unloading of cargo without requiring entrance into the trailer. Cargo is loaded onto the tractor trailer conveyor system from the rear door of the trailer. The conveyor system then transports the cargo towards the front of the trailer until adequate space has been made within the trailer to receive the next cargo item that is to be loaded onto the trailer. The same procedure is used to unload the trailer using the tractor trailer conveyor system with the exception that the direction of movement of the flooring is reversed. The tractor trailer conveyor system comprises a conveyor system and a control system. The conveyor system transports the cargo loaded within the trailer. The control system is used to operate the conveyor system.
