How we run Richmond.
Hotshot trucking for time-critical loads — materials, parts, equipment, jobsite supplies. We run flatbed, gooseneck, and box-truck equipment with same-day dispatch from Houston. Typical lanes: Houston ↔ RGV, Houston ↔ Austin/San Antonio, intra-Houston multi-stop routes. Billing is either per-mile with stop fees or flat-rate on named lanes. No broker markup — you talk to the driver directly once dispatched. All drivers are DOT-compliant. Once a load is dispatched you get the driver's direct number — call or text for status anytime — and a photo POD at delivery.
Richmond is the Fort Bend County seat and our operations hub for the west side of the metro. Aliana, Pecan Grove, and Long Meadow Farms are daily routes. We know the Fort Bend County ROW permitting desk and can help pull permits for street-side drops when needed.
