The province’s bustling ports link Canada to the rest of the world, causing businesses from across the country to send their goods there. Hot Shot Trucking facilitates this business, linking Canadian firms to international markets.
Hot Shot Trucking is a favorite of British Columbians in large part because of our commitment to dedicated shipping. Whereas most transportation companies will make multiple clients split a truck, we reserve a vehicle for each order. We thus guarantee that our drivers will head directly for you, rather than taking detours to visit other clients first. If your order requires any particular storage equipment, we are happy to install it.
Dedicated deliveries would typically raise the price of service, but we keep our Hot Shot shipments affordable by paying close attention to your order’s size. The smaller your order, the smaller the vehicle that will carry it; we have sprinter vans, tractor trailers, and straight trucks to chose from. In matching your order to a vehicle of comparable size, we avoid charging you for space that you do not use.
In addition to surmising size, we further reduce prices by carefully maintaining our vehicles. Our Hot Shot service technicians periodically inspect each vehicle for obsolete equipment and damaged parts. They waste no time in repairing and upgrading the trucks, ensuring that none of our vehicles takes to the road unless it is operating at full capacity. These repairs improve fuel economy, allowing us to charge you less for the same shipments. They also lower the probability of a breakdown, slowdown, or other delay.
Hot Shot Trucking’s base in British Columbia is Vancouver, but we also have vehicles and coverage in Quebec, Alberta, Ontario, and Manitoba, as well as in the United States. Our fleet is spread so far across the continent that we can reach any starting point and load your order in less than two hours. This gives us a head start on our deliveries, ensuring quick service.
One of the challenges of shipping in British Columbia is the need to coordinate across multiple schedules. Businesses that ship internationally need to have clear information for vessels in BC ports about when their orders will arrive, how they will be stored, and if there were any changes during the journey. Hot Shot Trucking provides a single source for all of this information. At any time during the delivery, you can call our offices and request updates on your order’s progress. You can also give us new instructions for storage or transportation. In addition to informing current clients, we also help prospective ones, notably by providing free freight quotes for customers considering an order.
Hot Shot Trucking takes seriously its duty to connect British Columbia to the rest of Canada and Canada to the rest of the world. Our trucks are always standing by to begin a new shipment anywhere in North America. For more information on shipping into, out of, or across British Columbia, visit our website today.
