Dry Van, Expedited & Dedicated Lanes
Open deck is what we're known for. But the same shippers who move steel with us also ship finished goods, parts and packaged product, and they'd rather not manage two brokers. So we run their van freight too - the same way, with the same people picking up the phone.
What rides on it
- Palletized and packaged product on 53' dry vans
- Expedited - team drivers and straight trucks when it can't miss
- Dedicated lanes - the same trucks on your repeat routes, week after week
- Overflow and seasonal surge capacity
Spec sheet
- Dry van
- 53' trailers, up to about 45,000 lbs, dock-to-dock
- Expedited
- Sprinter, straight truck, or team tractor depending on size and clock
- Dedicated
- Committed capacity and a set rate on lanes you run every week
- Lanes
- Michigan to Florida and everything east of it - the Great Lakes down through the Carolinas, Georgia and Florida, plus the Northeast.
How we run it
- 01
For dry van, tell us pallet count, weight, appointment type and whether it's live load or drop. We book it, track it, and confirm delivery.
- 02
Expedited gets sized to the freight - a sprinter for two pallets, a team tractor for a full truck that can't stop overnight - and quoted with a real arrival time, not a hope.
- 03
Dedicated lanes start with a conversation about volume and cadence. Once it's set, you get the same trucks, the same rate, and one less thing to re-buy every week.
Questions shippers ask us
How fast can you quote?
Send us origin, destination, dimensions, weight and when it needs to move. Standard open deck usually comes back the same business day. Permitted over-dimensional takes longer because the route and permits drive the price - we'll tell you up front how long we need.
Do you really want my van freight, or just the steel?
Both. Van freight is simpler than what we do all day, and running it for you means one broker, one phone number, one standard. That's the whole point.
How fast can you cover an expedited load?
Depends on where it is and what size truck it needs, but the answer comes back fast either way. Call and we'll give you a real number, not a maybe.
How do you vet the carriers you put on my freight?
Every carrier is checked before they get a load - authority, insurance on file for the commodity, safety record, and whether they've actually run this kind of freight. Open deck is not the place for a first-timer. If a carrier doesn't clear, they don't get the load, no matter how cheap the truck is.
What's your on-time record?
We track on-time pickup and delivery on every load and will show you our current numbers when we talk. If a load is going to be late, you hear it from us before you'd have to ask.
Have a dry van, expedited & dedicated load?
Send us the dimensions and the date. We'll take it from there.
