HOT SHOTS

Hot shot trucking is different because deliveries are typically smaller loads, using medium to one-ton trucks, transporting time-sensitive materials to their destinations on time.

While expedited shipping trucks are on standby, hot shot trucking distributes jobs to various drivers by communicating through load boards.  

Expedited shipping as defined is sending out hauls more quickly than normal shipping standards.  These trucks are always on standby.  Typically, expedited shipping trucks can be vans, tractor trailers, or straight trucks.
