Shippers post farm, oil and gas, forestry, mining and construction equipment, across Canada and between Canada and the US. Loads fit flatbeds, step decks, RGNs and gooseneck trailers, and some smaller partial loads work as LTL.
Hotshot loads
Hotshot trucking is an easy way into the industry. Drivers use a heavy-duty pickup (Class 3 to 5) instead of a tractor-trailer, pulling a bumper pull, gooseneck, lowboy or flatbed trailer.
Many new drivers build experience on a hotshot before buying a semi. Insurance is easier to get later, and the rules for both businesses largely overlap. A hotshot setup also costs less to buy than a semi.
What Is Unique About Us?
We know how passionate you are about the trucking industry and how much time you invest away from family and loved ones. We believe that you should be maximizing profits when you are on the road. This is why we do not believe in bidding for loads. As a professional driver, you should be paid for your expertise.
The trucking industry is a giant and full of competition—truckers can be their own worst enemies when they need to lower rates to get the work. The industry often doesn’t serve anyone well, as drivers don’t make money and shippers may not end up with a quality driver.
The Trusted Dispatch approach automatically computes rates that are fair to both the driver and the customer. Spend less time finding loads and more time on the road earning money for heavy haul services and equipment hauling.

Why Drive with Trusted Dispatch?
- Prepaid Loads – We direct deposit to drivers within 30 days of the delivery.
- No Hidden Fees – We deposit the full amount listed on the job sheet when you accept the load.
- No Middlemen – Direct contact between drivers and customers for better service and communication.
- No Brokers Allowed – We ensure we only have loads that are real and one click away for you to accept.
- Flexible Rates – If you see a load that you want, but the listed rate just doesn’t quite work for you, place an offer.
Keep in mind that listed rates don’t include ferry fees, tarping, special permitting, or pilot escorts.
The “place an offer” option allows you to communicate an “all-in” rate for a customer to review and accept.
We post loads across Canada and between Canada and the US: farm, oil and gas, forestry, mining and construction equipment. Some smaller partial loads fit flat decks or gooseneck trailers. See Drivers in Action for examples.

How Are Rates Calculated?
Trusted Dispatch calculates rates by respecting your professional time and costs.
- The platform determines which category to place the load, based on how many axles are needed to haul the load and whether specialty equipment is needed. This determines the base hourly rate.
- The platform estimates the load and unload time, with a minimum of 1 hour each at full rates.
- The platform estimates the time it would take to cover the distance at average truck travel speeds, including a little extra to allow for deadheading, again at full hourly rates. Add all that up, and you get the final total.
What Do We Need From You?
Just be the professional you are. You must have your own cargo insurance covering the value of the freight you accept to haul. You must also have the proper equipment, skills, and knowledge to make the haul safely and within the law. Shippers will be relying on you for advice and a fully professional experience.
