Standby Services
In industries where timing can shift by the hour—construction, oil & gas, manufacturing—having freight ready is only half the battle. Sometimes, you need a transporter on standby, ready to roll the moment the green light flashes. That’s where Hightail Hotshot’s dedicated standby service becomes a game-changer.
What Is Dedicated Standby Service?
A dedicated standby hot shot driver is committed solely to your project. They’re not juggling multiple deliveries or routes. They’re waiting—exclusively for your call—to haul your freight the second you need it moved.
Why It Matters:
- Unmatched Flexibility: Timelines change. With a standby unit, your freight waits safely, not your project.
- No Scheduling Conflicts: Your transporter isn’t squeezing you into a route—they’re there for you, when you’re ready.
- Faster Turnaround: No need to dispatch someone last-minute. Your truck and driver are already there.
