Expedited freight typically uses standard box trucks or tractors with dedicated service. Hotshot uses smaller vehicles like pickups and gooseneck trailers for faster, lighter deliveries.

In many U.S. areas, same-day pickup is available within 2–4 hours. We operate 24/7, including weekends.

Can I track the shipment in real-time?

Yes. GPS tracking is included in all expedited and hotshot shipments.

Is the cargo insured?

Yes. All loads are insured and handled by compliant, vetted carriers.

Frequently asked questions

What counts as expedited freight?

A dedicated vehicle that leaves when your freight is ready and drives straight to the consignee: sprinter vans and straight trucks for up to a few pallets, team drivers on a 53-foot trailer for cross-country loads that must arrive next day.

How fast can a sprinter van be at my dock?

Typically 1–3 hours in and around major metros, same day almost anywhere in the lower 48 — tell us the ready time and we confirm the pickup window.

How far does a team drive in 24 hours?

Around 1,000 miles with team drivers versus about 500 miles solo — a Dallas to Chicago load ships today and delivers tomorrow morning.

Do you offer tracking on expedited loads?

Yes — check calls or GPS position updates at the frequency you ask for, and the driver's phone number for the receiving site.

How is expedited priced?

Per loaded mile by vehicle type, plus deadhead to your dock, tolls and any waiting time; a written rate before the vehicle rolls.
