are there any strictly DNH w/Preloaded trailer OTR fleets out there?

Walmart? Schneider also has dedicated Walmart drivers.

Fremont Contract Carriers says 72% drop and hook.

 

Wmt will supposedly suspend all 3rd party cross dock hauling and bump up their white shirt private fleet to do this exclusively..
3rd party will still be able t

 

I cannot see that happening anytime soon…

 

I’m odd and not a big fan of drop and hook at times. Sometimes I’d rather sit at a warehouse for 45 minutes than swap to a preloaded trailer that may or may not be missing a mud flap and a freshly picked up bolt in a tire. But anyways...

I did a short stint with heartland express. Majority of all loads were pre-loaded and then store deliveries, so unloaded in a timely manner. Lots of Lowe’s, Tractor Supply, etc. Miles weren’t great though and lots of short hauls, so probably not what you want.

Danny Herman has a long length of haul and a decent amount of drop and hook from what I’ve heard and they stay south so Winter isn’t as much of a hindrance. Pay scale is a little lackluster, but no Winter and 1000-1500 mile runs regularly seems like an enjoyable way to drive OTR.

I’d assume JB Hunt intermodal is majority drop and hook.
