I need the same truck every week
Dedicated trucking solutions from Gateway Distribution in Texas, TX.
You ship the same route every week but keep getting different drivers who don't know your loading dock, your paperwork, or how you operate. Each new driver slows things down and creates problems you shouldn't have to solve repeatedly in Texas.
Different drivers every week means starting over each time. New drivers don't know where to park, how your team loads, or which dock to use. They ask the same questions, make the same mistakes, and slow down your operation. This happens because most freight companies use whatever truck is available instead of assigning dedicated equipment.
Dedicated trucking costs more than spot freight but less than buying your own trucks. You pay for consistent service with priority handling on your lanes. Pricing depends on your route length, frequency, and cargo type. Most dedicated contracts start around $3,000-5,000 per week for regular routes.
Call Gateway Distribution to discuss dedicated trucking for your Texas operation. Tell them your current route, shipping frequency, and what problems you're having with driver turnover. They'll quote a dedicated service that gives you the same truck and driver each week. You set the schedule and they stick to it.
With dedicated trucking, your driver knows your operation inside and out. Loading happens faster, paperwork flows smoothly, and you stop training new drivers every week. Your shipping becomes predictable and reliable.
