01 / OVERVIEW

When freight can’t wait.

Some freight can’t wait for a normal quoting cycle. When a plant goes down, a supplier fails or a storm hits, you need trucks on the ground now. We pull from our carrier network and put the right equipment together for a short-term, high-volume move.

What’s covered

  • Plant shutdowns and restarts
  • Backup capacity when a supplier fails
  • Disaster and emergency relief freight
  • Seasonal and harvest surges
  • Short-term dedicated fleets
  • A single point of contact throughout

Common questions.

It depends on the lanes, the equipment and the day, so we won’t promise a number we can’t back up. Call dispatch with the details and we’ll tell you what’s realistic right away.

Plant shutdowns, supplier failures, disaster and relief efforts, and seasonal peaks. If you’re not sure it qualifies, call and ask.

Yes. If the need continues, we can turn a surge into recurring lanes with carriers already familiar with your sites.
