Image: Hotshot delivery, LTL freight, and expedited service are three different approaches to urgent freight — each suited to specific situations. WTM Logistics provides all three through its hotshot trucking, LTL service, and freight transport service.

Choose hotshot when downtime costs more than freight and the shipment must arrive as fast as possible with no consolidation. Is your shipment LTL or FTL? Hotshot is neither — it is point-to-point urgent delivery regardless of volume. LTL and FTL are for scheduled freight. Where is the pickup and delivery location? Provide both addresses for accurate hotshot routing and timing. Choose the right urgent freight option with WTM. Email dispatch@wtmlogistics.com or call 587-316-2639.
