What Is Hotshot Delivery?

Hotshot delivery is fast, dedicated, point-to-point trucking using smaller, non-CDL trucks and gooseneck trailers. It’s the fastest option for time-critical loads, last-minute shipments, outages or equipment failures, and emergency restocks—loads that can’t wait on traditional LTL or slow freight carriers.

  • Time-critical loads

  • Last-minute or emergency shipments

  • Outages and breakdowns

  • Rush production parts

  • Missed LTL/FTL windows
