Dedicated Bulk Transportation Solutions

Repeating movements and dedicated arrangements planned around your production schedule.

When a recurring arrangement makes sense

A single load is a transaction. A lane that runs every week is a plan. When volume is predictable, it is worth agreeing the pattern up front — how many loads, on what days, out of which origin — so capacity is arranged around your schedule instead of being sourced from scratch each time.

PTC coordinates single loads, multiple-load arrangements and dedicated programs. Which one fits depends on your volume, how stable it is, and how much notice you can give.

What we plan with you

Recurring work is set up from the lane pattern rather than a single shipment. We look at the volume, the seasonality, the loading windows at both ends and the equipment the product requires, and we agree how changes and short-notice additions will be handled.

Who should inquire

Shippers with predictable bulk volume, procurement teams planning a transportation program, and anyone comparing spot coverage against a committed arrangement.

What we need from you

Send the details available now. These items help a coordinator evaluate the product, lane and equipment requirements.

  • Lane or lanes, with origin and destination detail
  • Loads per week or month and how stable that volume is
  • Product and any equipment requirements it carries
  • Days and hours available for loading and unloading
  • Program start date and intended duration
  • Whether this is going out to bid or being arranged directly

What we review before responding

Equipment availability, timing and pricing are confirmed only after the shipment details and carrier fit have been reviewed.

How to request this service

  1. Send your details through the quote form, by email or by phone.
  2. A PTC coordinator reviews the product, lane and timing and comes back with questions if anything is unclear.
  3. We identify carriers in our network positioned for the work and confirm what we can coordinate.
  4. Nothing moves until you approve it.

Frequently asked questions

Is a minimum volume required?
There is no published minimum. Volume, lane and timing are reviewed together, so send the pattern you expect.
Can a recurring lane start as a single test load?
Often that is the sensible way to start. Say so in your inquiry and we will plan it that way.
We are running a formal bid. Where should that go?
Use the bid invitation page so the opportunity reaches the right people with its deadline attached.
