Freight services

Four ways to move your freight, from a single pallet across town to a full trailer across Texas. Each one is quoted up front, and each load gets a dispatcher you can reach directly.

Less than truckload

LTL

LTL lets your pallets share a trailer with other shippers' freight, so you pay for the space you use instead of the whole truck. It's the most cost-effective way to ship a few pallets on a regular schedule.

LTL rates depend on weight, dimensions, distance, and freight class. Not sure of your freight class? Send us the dimensions and weight and we'll work it out for you.

Good for

  • 1 to 6 palletized pieces
  • Recurring shipments to customers or stores
  • Freight that isn't time-critical
  • Keeping shipping costs down

Included

  • Dock pickup and dock delivery
  • Bill of lading prepared for you
  • Status updates from dispatch
  • Signed proof of delivery

Full truckload

Full truckload

With full truckload, the trailer is yours alone. We load at your dock and drive straight to the delivery address with no terminal stops and no other freight on board. That means faster transit and less handling.

Once a shipment gets past 10 pallets or about 12,000 lb, a full truck is often cheaper than LTL. Send us the details and we'll quote both if it's close.

Good for

  • 10 or more pallets
  • High-value or fragile freight
  • Tight delivery appointments
  • Plant-to-warehouse moves

Included

  • Dedicated 53′ trailer
  • Direct route, no transfers
  • Appointment scheduling at the receiver
  • Signed proof of delivery

Expedited

Hotshot

Hotshot is our fastest option. A heavy-duty pickup pulls a gooseneck flatbed and heads out as soon as your freight is ready, often the same day you call. It's built for loads that are holding up a job site, a rig, or a production line.

Flatbed freight loads from the side or top, so pickup and delivery locations need a forklift, crane, or loading crew. Tell us what's on site and we'll plan around it.

Good for

  • Oilfield and energy equipment
  • Machinery and replacement parts
  • Construction materials
  • Anything needed today

Included

  • Same-day dispatch when available
  • Straps, chains, and securement
  • Direct route to the site
  • Text updates from your driver

Houston metro

Local delivery

Local delivery covers scheduled runs across Houston for stores, suppliers, contractors, and job sites. You pick a 4-hour pickup window, and we can set up recurring daily or weekly routes if you ship on a regular schedule.

We handle businesses without a loading dock too. Add liftgate or inside delivery when you book.

Good for

  • Store and warehouse restocks
  • Job-site material drops
  • Supplier-to-customer runs
  • Standing weekly routes

Included

  • 4-hour pickup windows
  • Call-ahead before arrival
  • Photo and signature at drop-off
  • Recurring schedules available

Add-on services

Extras for tricky pickups and drops

In freight these are called accessorials. Every one you need is listed on your quote before you book, so there are no surprise charges on the invoice.

Liftgate

A powered platform lowers freight to the ground when there's no loading dock at pickup or delivery.

Inside delivery

The driver brings freight past the door into the building instead of leaving it at the curb or dock.

Residential

Delivery to a home or home-based business, including call-ahead scheduling.

Appointment

Delivery at a set date and time for receivers that require a scheduled slot.

Limited access

Construction sites, schools, military bases, farms, and other locations with restricted entry.

Tarping

Weather protection for flatbed and hotshot freight that can't get wet.

Special freight: Call us before booking hazmat, oversize, or temperature-controlled freight so we can confirm the right equipment and paperwork.
