At HotShotTrucking.com, we prioritize clear and consistent communication with both our drivers and clients to keep everyone informed from start to finish. To streamline this process, we’ve established a single point of contact (SPOC), allowing clients to instantly reach the appropriate team members without waiting in queues or leaving messages.

Concierge-Level Customer Service
To keep customers fully informed, HotShotTrucking.com has invested in advanced tracking and monitoring technology across our network of affiliated trucks. This system allows us to respond swiftly to any disruptions; if we detect issues like traffic, weather, or road work affecting a chosen route, we immediately identify alternatives and redirect the driver.

The hot shot transportation team provides a single source of information on the condition and progress of your orders. Whether you need to give new instructions, ask questions, or simply learn the location of the vehicle, we will respond at any time.Sprinter Vans
Emergency shipments often consist of smaller, lightweight items that don’t require much space but are vital to keeping production running smoothly. For these types of orders, sprinter vans are often the perfect solution—they’re cost-effective, fuel-efficient, and compact enough to navigate congested roads quickly.
To meet this need, HotShotTrucking.com has integrated a fleet of affiliated sprinter vans into our Texas network, including in Killeen. When you place a smaller order, we’ll locate a nearby sprinter van that’s ideally suited to your shipment’s size. If specific features like refrigeration or freezer capabilities are required, we’ll ensure the selected van is fully equipped to meet your cargo’s needs.
Straight Trucks
Straight or box trucks provide an ideal middle-ground solution for expedited freight, offering more capacity than a sprinter van while remaining smaller and more maneuverable than a dry van. For our Texas customers, including those in Killeen, this balance delivers the best of both worlds.
At HotShotTrucking.com, we excel in coordinating shipments with straight trucks, leveraging their added space and carefully planning routes to avoid traffic, ensuring smooth, consistent deliveries. Many of our straight trucks come equipped with freezer or refrigeration options, making them perfect for transporting agricultural products and other perishable items. Even on the busiest roads, you can count on us for a swift and reliable straight-truck delivery tailored to your needs.
53ft Dry Vans
Killeen-based businesses with large shipping needs can rely on our affiliated 53-foot dry vans. Even with vehicles of this size, HotShotTrucking.com maintains its full truckload strategy by selecting a dry van with cargo space precisely suited to your order’s volume and weight.
We apply the same expertise in route planning and attentive route management that we use for smaller vehicles, like sprinter vans or straight trucks. Our trusted affiliated driver will bring the dry van to your supply point, load your items, and immediately set off toward your destination. Throughout transit, we monitor the van using advanced tracking equipment to avoid traffic delays and ensure your delivery meets your schedule.
