You never know when a last-minute breakdown of a fleet vehicle, or a manufacturing hiccup will lead to delivery issues. Perhaps your business is shorthanded, or you have to include a delivery on a route it wouldn’t usually go on, you need expedited trucking services.
There are many examples of when a delivery needs assistance as soon as possible. You may be running a construction site and cannot continue daily production without a critical component. You could be setting up your booth at a trade show and realize you’re missing part of the exhibit. Whatever the reason, these strict time frames are best accommodated by our team at Swift Delivery and Logistics.
We offer premium expedited trucking services to ensure you receive your parcels are delivered ASAP. Our team works hard to overcome any potential deadlines, equipment failures, or supply chain divergencies to find a workable solution for you.
What are expedited trucking services?
Expedited trucking is the last-minute delivery of essential items. It is the missing gap in your supply chain whenever an unwanted situation occurs in your normal operations. While it can be used for situations like a business setting up an exhibit for a convention and is missing a few key elements, you can also use expedited trucking for sensitive items. Products like pallets of flowers are sensitive to temperatures over long travel or seasonal gifts needing to get to retail locations with increased consumer demand.
At Swift Delivery and Logistics, we use a different method than cumbersome 18-wheelers or complex delivery systems. Instead of leveraging larger vehicles, we use a more flexible solution with ground LTL services and cargo vans through an active network of independent contractors. This gives us the ability to meet the needs of every client we serve in the face of all potential time constraints.
Our drivers do not have to conform to corporate guidelines or protocols. They have the agility to get a delivery where it needs to go, when it needs to be there, that very few competitors are able to offer.
What are the benefits of expedited trucking?
