I need the same truck every week

You ship the same route regularly but keep getting different drivers who don't know your operation. Each new driver needs to learn your loading dock, your timing, and your specific requirements. You want consistency but aren't sure if freight companies in Oklahoma can actually deliver the same truck and driver every week.

This happens because most freight companies use spot market trucking. They assign whatever truck is available when your shipment is ready. Each driver has different experience levels and familiarity with your facility. The result is longer loading times, missed appointments, and constant explanations of your process.

Dedicated trucking costs more than spot freight but less than owning your own trucks. Expect to pay 15-25% more than standard rates for the consistency. The price depends on your route frequency, distance, and cargo requirements. Companies with weekly or bi-weekly shipments usually see the best value.

Call Gateway Distribution to discuss dedicated trucking for your regular routes. You get the same driver and equipment on a schedule you set. The driver learns your operation, your dock procedures, and your timing requirements. This eliminates the training period every shipment and reduces delays caused by unfamiliarity.

Once you have dedicated service, your shipments run like clockwork. Loading happens faster because the driver knows your process. Delivery times become predictable because the same person handles your route every week. You spend less time explaining procedures and more time running your business.
