Hotshot
Expedited, dedicated, time-sensitive delivery typically using a single driver and vehicle, dispatched on demand without route consolidation.
Hotshot delivery is expedited, dedicated freight movement — a single driver and vehicle dispatched specifically for one shipment without consolidation. Common for industrial parts, construction, and field service when downtime cost outweighs delivery cost.
Distinct from same-day in that hotshot trades route efficiency for speed and certainty. A hotshot driver typically goes A → B with no other stops.
