Forest City Freight: Hot Shot Services Portland, Maine

From shipping to forestry to brewing to fishing, Portland, Maine really has it all. While not Maine’s political capital, the city has long since proven itself as the state’s economic center, a title bolstered by the decision of innovative companies like Americold to keep their facilities here, as well as by the recent revival of the city’s port. HotShotTrucking strives to keep Portland vibrant by adding ground and air shipping to the mix.

Hot Shot Delivery Portland, Maine

From our name, HotShotTrucking.com, you’d get the impression we're a trucking company— and you wouldn’t be wrong! We have a long history of providing hot shot trucking Portland, shipping by land to destinations and form starting points in major cities all over North America. But a town as vibrant as Portland, Maine can’t always afford to wait for a ground shipment, especially when facing an emergency that requires decisive action.

Call (978) 662-2214

We thus combine our ground services with air deliveries through AirFreight.com and SameDayDelivery.com, creating a seamless mix of shipping solutions that we bolster through:

  • Careful Planning— Whether you’re shipping by ground, by air, or by both, we take into account every contingency to find the quickest route to or from Portland. For ground deliveries, we consider road quality, weather patterns, and traffic patterns; for air options, we schedule or charter a direct flight from start to finish, or if that isn’t possible, find the quickest and most robust series of connections. We also coordinate delivery to and from the airport, so you never have trouble making an otherwise well-timed flight.
  • Precise Tracking— For both air and ground deliveries, HotShotTrucking.com takes advantage of the best tracking equipment in the business. This allows us to keep an eye on your goods en route and take evasive action at the first sign of delay or damage. Our tracing equipment has the added benefit of allowing us to give you updates in real time— whenever you want to know where your shipment is and when it’s likely to arrive, all you have to do is call.
  • Dedicated Handling— For any deliveries involving ground transportation, we devote a vehicle to carry your goods and no one else’s. This lets us avoid having to first drive to other customers’ endpoints before we get to yours. Not only does that make for a shorter, more direct route, but it reduces the number of things that can go wrong, making shipments both rapid and reliable.
  • Team Trucking— To further bolster the rapidity and reliability of ground deliveries, we require each truck making a long delivery to have two drivers. The drivers operate equitably, switching between rest and work on a regular basis. Thanks to this, our trucks stay on the road day and night, yet our drivers don’t get too tired.
