Like many cities in the Commonwealth, Hampton has experienced its fair share of growing pains. Businesses of all stripes have been moving to the city and the rest of Hampton Roads, eager to take advantage of its prime location and many resources. But the more businesses come here, the more those resources are stretched thin. This is as true for logistics infrastructure as for anything else. Roads only have so much space, and the more companies try to use them to get their supplies, the more trucks and vans there are clogging them up. This is even before you factor in commuter traffic from the roughly 1.6 million people who live in the Hampton Roads region. Consider all of this together and you can see why traffic jams are such a serious problem in this area.

HotShotTrucking.com has the solution to traffic jams and all other sources of delay. As a proud provider of hot shot trucking service Hampton Roads, we’ve developed a strategy that ensures swift service throughout the region.

This strategy involves:

Local & Regional Knowledge— To truly serve the needs of Hampton and its neighbors, it’s essential to understand the logistical needs of the region in detail. HotShotTrucking.com has thus amassed a wealth of knowledge concerning road quality, traffic patterns, and weather patterns, not only in Hampton Roads but in the other metropolitan areas it’s connected to. Whether your supplies are coming southward from the DC and Baltimore areas, northward from the Atlanta, Charlotte, and Triangle areas, or from any other source, we know how likely delays are on the various routes we might take. We’ll thus choose the swiftest route with the lowest risk of delays for the entire journey, and get you your goods right when you need them most.
Extensive Trucking Connections— While we have the knowledge of a local trucking broker, our network extends throughout North America. We have affiliated trucks, vans, and trailers stationed in key locations all over the US, Mexico, and Canada. This network allows us to get your items loaded no more than two hours after we’ve received your order, regardless of where that order is coming from. Loading your order so quickly frees up time that can be spent on the road to Hampton. It also gives us maximal flexibility, allowing us to ship at rapid speed for any client, regardless of what their standard supply routes look like.
Diligent Driving Affiliates— Besides building a network of affiliated trucks, we’ve also assembled a web of skilled drivers that is every bit as extensive. Our drivers are available in large numbers from any North American metro area. We vet them carefully to make sure they have the skills to work safely and swiftly on any route, and set the proper incentives so they’ll be available to ship the moment you need them. Our affiliated drivers are so skilled and experienced that we’re confident you’ll be as comfortable relying on them as we are.
Team Shipping Arrangements— In assigning these diligent drivers, we don’t just send them out one per truck. Instead, we pair them up, so that every truck making a delivery over a certain length has at least two truckers to operate it. This strategy means that there’s always an extra driver to take the wheel if the one currently behind it gets too tired to keep working. The latter driver will take over while the former can get some rest; they’ll then switch again when the latter gets too tired. Thanks to this tactic, we can keep our drivers fully rested while keeping our trucks on the road both day and night, increasing speed and safety all at once.
Dedicated Delivery Decisions— As a dedicated shipping broker, HotShotTrucking.com avoids placing multiple clients’ supplies in the same truck. Instead, we assign one vehicle per order, and carefully match the size of the vehicle to the volume of your order so that you don’t pay for extra space. Dedicated our deliveries this way means that we’re able to choose the most reliable route for your goods and stick to that, and don’t have to build in detours for the sake of serving other clients. We also outfit these dedicated trucks with advanced tracing technology so that we can keep an eye on their position during the drive and report any updates. We’ll use this technology to monitor each road shortly before the truck reaches it, identify any new obstacles that arise, and steer the trucks around them.
