Need the same truck every week?
Dedicated trucking solutions from Gateway Distribution in Oregon, OR.
You ship the same route regularly but keep getting different drivers who don't know your operation. Every week brings new faces who need training on your dock procedures and special requirements. Oregon businesses with consistent shipping needs deserve better than the spot freight lottery.
This happens because most freight companies use different drivers and trucks for each load. Spot freight means whoever is available takes your shipment. Each new driver learns your operation from scratch, slowing down pickup and delivery times.
Dedicated trucking costs more than spot freight but less than owning trucks. You pay for priority handling on your lanes. Pricing depends on your route distance, frequency, and cargo requirements. Weekly routes typically cost 15-30% more than spot rates.
Call Gateway Distribution to discuss dedicated service for your Oregon operation. You set the schedule and route. Your assigned driver learns your dock procedures, customer requirements, and special handling needs. Our specialty-trained drivers handle everything from standard freight to oversized cargo along Interstate 5, Interstate 84, and throughout Oregon.
With dedicated service, your shipments run like clockwork. The same professional driver arrives on schedule every week. No more explaining your operation to strangers or dealing with pickup delays.
