Adapt Faster with a Dedicated Carrier
Transportation keeps shifting with new tech, new rules, and tougher carbon targets arrive faster than most shippers can adapt. A dedicated carrier bridges that gap. It blends the flexibility of a third-party fleet with the control of a private one. With TA Dedicated’s up-to-date equipment and compliance expertise, you get smoother operations, full regulatory coverage, and a healthier bottom line.
Advantages of a Dedicated Contract Carrier
Lock In Predictable Costs
Fixed-rate contracts shield you from spot-market spikes, fuel swings, and add-on surcharges, giving you stable budgets and clearer forecasts.
Scale Capacity on Demand
Because your contract capacity can flex quickly for seasonal peaks or sudden demand shifts, you enjoy tighter coverage and controlled costs.
Retain Drivers
Stable schedules improve driver retention, while skills-based onboarding leads to steadier service and fewer handling errors.
Leverage Modern Technology
Live GPS and automated routing feed live performance data that trims idle time and improves on-time metrics.
Lower Liability
We carry compliance, safety, and insurance responsibilities, reducing your exposure to costly claims and fines.
Free Your Team from Fleet Tasks
Recruiting, maintenance, and DOT compliance stay with us—freeing your team to focus on core business, not fleet headaches.
How Can a Dedicated Carrier Move the Needle for You?
1. Stabilize Freight Costs
Fixed-rate contracts hold pricing steady and remove spot-market swings.
2. Transition Your Private Fleet
Convert to a dedicated carrier and trade capital expense for managed capacity.
3. Improve Shipment Visibility
Enjoy better tracking with live dashboards that display status, ETA, and dwell time.
How Our Dedicated Carrier Model Works
- Establish Your Freight Profile – We analyze volume, lanes, and service targets to discover hidden costs and new opportunities you might miss.
- Design Your Contract Fleet – Your custom mix of tractors, trailers, and KPIs are locked into predictable rates that match your goals and risk tolerance.
- Onboard Without Disruption – Our managers train drivers on your SOPs, brand the equipment, and roll day-one deliveries without missing a load.
- Watch Performance Live – You can open a dashboard to see ETAs and shipment progress in real time while we fine-tune routes to shave miles and dollars.
- Scale on Demand – Over time, you can add or release trucks in days (not months) so capacity always mirrors demand and budgets stay on track.
