Dry vans provide enclosed trailer space for palletized goods, packaged products, equipment, and other freight that needs protection from weather and road conditions. This is one of the most common options for general full truckload shipping.

Flatbed equipment can be a practical choice for machinery, construction materials, oversized items, and freight that needs to be loaded from the side or above. Dimensions, weight, securement, and weather protection should be reviewed carefully before booking.

When timing is especially important, expedited truckload options may be available based on the route, equipment, and carrier capacity. We’ll help review the timeline and determine which available services align with the shipment’s requirements.

Businesses with regular truckload volume may benefit from a more consistent quoting and coordination process. Cheetah Transport can help organize recurring lanes, shipment details, and equipment requirements while providing one familiar point of contact.

The total weight, dimensions, pallet count, and overall configuration of the freight all help determine the appropriate trailer and loading plan. Let us know about anything unusually tall, wide, long, or heavy so those requirements can be considered from the beginning.

We’ll need to know how the freight will be loaded and unloaded at each location. Dock availability, forklifts, cranes, loading hours, and site access can all affect the equipment and scheduling needed for the shipment.

Some facilities accept freight during open receiving hours, while others require scheduled appointments. Sharing these details early helps us coordinate the shipment around the operating requirements of both locations.

Certain loads require straps, chains, tarps, blocking, bracing, or other securement methods. We’ll help identify special handling needs based on the freight and coordinate with available transportation options suited to the shipment.
