What is hotshot trucking?
There are various
different meanings and definitions that can define hotshot trucking. From my view point and experience, hotshot trucking is freight and equipment that is time sensitive to get to it's delivery location. The typical hot shot is a class 3-5 truck with a 30-40ft trailer. The most commonly used style trailer is a 40ft gooseneck, like captured in the photo above. This obviously differentiates with what kind of freight that is needing the expedited service. The hot shot term originated out in the Texas oilfields and now is used nationwide. Pick up trucks and smaller trailers would make quick trips for parts and cargo that were needed to keep the fields up and running accordingly. Now, there are thousands of drivers transporting these loads all across the country.
