Dedicated Transportation and Logistics for Automotive Freight
Connect with TA Dedicated
How Dedicated Transportation Models Support Dealer Parts Logistics
If your dealer deliveries move without oversight, so do your costs and risks. Missed windows, unvetted drivers, and inconsistent handling can result in delayed dealer parts, dissatisfied service teams, and even downtime in repair shops. For Dealer Delivery Service (DDS) operations, that’s a recipe for costly disruption.
A dedicated fleet gives you a safer, more efficient alternative—with trained drivers, strict SOPs, and predictable costs. Whether you’re moving aftermarket parts or stocking dealer service bays, you gain control over execution, reduce risk exposure, and avoid the high price of uncertainty.

Automotive Freight Solutions
Inbound Container Drayage
Connect Port to Plant
Containers leave Savannah and Charleston the same day they land. Our own chassis, customs staff, and cross-dock crews speed the hand-off to over-the-road trucks. Parts reach your plant on schedule, and demurrage stays off the ledger.
Aftermarket Parts Deliveries and JIT Shuttle Runs
Hour by Hour Part Delivery
Dedicated trucks cycle between suppliers and assembly lines on set clocks. Live GPS plus standby power units and on-site coordinators absorb unplanned spikes so production keeps pace.
Specialized Freight Handling
Extra Care for Critical Parts
For airbags, batteries, and other sensitive units, certified hazmat drivers follow load-specific SOPs. Continuous sensor tracking satisfies OEM audits and shields high-value cargo from damage.
Flatbed Transportation
Oversized Cargo, Zero Hassle
With permits secured and escorts booked, oversized presses and frames move on modern flatbeds. Advance route surveys clear obstacles, so heavy moves arrive on time.
