Hotshot trucking is indeed a service designed for the fast transport of smaller, time-sensitive loads. It typically involves using medium-duty trucks (often pickup trucks) with flatbed trailers to move freight that doesn't require a full-sized semi-truck. The cargo can range from construction materials and machinery to smaller commercial goods that need urgent delivery. The flexibility of hotshot trucking makes it an ideal option for expedited or last-minute shipments, often operating on a per-load basis without the need for a full truckload, thereby reducing costs and speeding up delivery times.

At Task Force Transport & Logistics, we always recommend that clients maintain their own comprehensive insurance. This ensures that, in the event of a claim, their insurance can respond quickly, with any neccesary subrogation handled afterward. However, since the cargo will be under our care, custody, and control, rest assured that your cargo insurance will extend to cover it.
