FAQ’s

Hot shot trucking is an expedited freight shipping service that offers quick and specialized transportation options by using various size vehicles to expedite time-sensitive cargo.

The word “hot shot trucking” comes from the oil sector, when deliveries that were critical and needed to be made quickly—often with smaller trucks—were called “hot shots” because of how quickly and immediately they were completed.

Depending on the size of the truck and the rules, hotshots may normally transport loads up to 20,000 pounds. Smaller trucks and vans may carry lighter loads, providing versatility for different kinds of freight.

Trailer lengths for hotshot transportation typically vary from 20 to 40 feet. The weight, volume, and particular hauling capability needed for effective transport operations all influence the optimal size.

Faster delivery for small to medium-sized loads, more flexibility, cost effectiveness for shorter distances, adaptability to a variety of goods, and improved customer satisfaction through individualised service are some benefits of hotshot trucking.

Traditional less-than-truckload (LTL) shipping combines smaller shipments from several clients into a single truck. LTL is great when less transit time and control is required for transport.
