Expedited Hot Shot Service

It depends on who you ask. The term Hot Shot can be used to describe a type of truck that is similar to a flat bed, but is more cost effective for the shipper. It can also be used to refer to the type of service in which freight is moved on an extremely tight deadline, also known as an Expedited Freight Service. Whether you are looking for a Hot Shot truck specifically, or you need to move your freight ASAP, we’ve got you covered.

Some deliveries — like medical supplies — are obviously urgent. But a missed delivery of a single carton to your best customer might be just as urgent for your business. Some fragile or high-value freight demands special handling. NTG provides all the personnel and equipment you need to get your delivery from wherever it is to wherever it needs to be in the fastest, surest way possible. We offer single or team drivers with everything from hotshots and sprinter vans to straight trucks with forklifts.

We are considered an ideal solution for small, high-value, time-sensitive freight like lab and medical equipment, pharmaceuticals, auto parts, electronic components or even missed LTL pickups.

NTG leverages technology to speed up every aspect of delivery — from securing the equipment and driver, to mapping the route, tracking the progress and processing the documentation. In addition to constantly monitoring drivers’ certifications and performance records, we also maintain a safety history database. In the long run, safer drivers ensure better on-time performance.

Expedited deliveries are necessarily more expensive than routine deliveries. But, thanks to our size and our contracted relationships with carriers, you benefit from the economies of scale. Additionally, our technology advantages allow us to be more efficient. Those savings show up in our pricing.

We are also one of the biggest players in the spot capacity market. Contract or spot, we will always look for the most cost-effective way to get your freight where it’s going. Our business has grown thanks to customer loyalty and satisfaction with our service and our pricing. We want to always be the first call you make, even if it’s at the last minute.

NTG is an active member of CargoNet, Freight Forwarders Association, NASTC Best Broker, SmartWay,

and TIA/CTB. Our technology integrates with Trucker Tools, Project44 and MacroPoint. We are also TSA-compliant carriers for air cargo deliveries.

Most of all, we are proud of the growth that comes from new customers becoming regulars. That is the best validation of our commitment to excellence in every aspect of expedited freight delivery.
