Home / Services / Contracted Lanes

Phoenix trucking,
reliable since 2016.

We've been running our own fleet across the Southwest from Tolleson since 2016. Background-checked drivers, monitored equipment, and the same crew on your lanes week after week. Standing daily service to Las Vegas, Albuquerque, and El Paso — plus contract OTR everywhere in between.

01 / Capabilities

What contracted lanes look like at IDE.

Six concrete service modes on our own fleet. Dedicated capacity on recurring lanes, plus the equipment, drivers, and tracking infrastructure to keep them running every day.

01 / Dedicated

Contracted Lanes

Trucks and drivers assigned to your specific lanes on a recurring schedule. Same equipment week after week, with backup capacity held in reserve.

02 / Cargo

Pharma & Sensitive Freight

We move pharmaceuticals and other sensitive cargo on contracted lanes. Chain-of-custody, temperature-controlled equipment when required, and drivers trained on regulated freight handling.

03 / Capacity

Guaranteed Slots

Contracted weekly load commitments held on our schedule. No bidding, no scrambling, no surprise rate spikes during peak season.

04 / Equipment

Drop-and-Hook Trailers

Trailer pools staged at your dock for high-volume contracted shippers. Eliminate live-load wait time and turn freight faster.

05 / Drivers

Vetted & Professional

Background-checked drivers, dashcam-equipped trucks, and consistent crews on your routes. Driver retention beats spot-market churn for the freight that matters.

06 / Tracking

Customer-App Trained

Drivers trained on your tracking platform — MacroPoint, Project44, FourKites, or your in-house portal. Your team gets live visibility on the system you already use.

02 / Coverage

Southwest first.

Our daily operating area is the Southwest — trucks rolling on standing lanes from a Tolleson hub. National lanes are on the table too: longer OTR on our own fleet, or brokered through Freight Club LLC when our trucks are tied up. Pick your endpoint.

03 / Process

How a contracted lane gets built.

From signed agreement to steady-state in two weeks or less. Five steps, no surprises, with a validation run before we lock the schedule.

01
Intake
We review volume, schedule, equipment needs, accessorials, and any dock or compliance constraints. Output is a written lane spec and pricing.
02
Routing
Lane analysis against our network: deadhead miles, backhaul fit, hours-of-service compliance, and asset assignment. We tell you exactly which trucks and drivers run your freight.
03
Onboarding
First validation run with your team, our dispatch, and the assigned driver. Loads, paperwork, dock procedures, and tracking integrations all confirmed before steady-state.
04
Steady-state
Recurring service runs on the locked schedule. Live visibility through your tracking platform, exception alerts pushed to your team, and monthly performance reporting.
05
Scale
Volume changes happen. We adjust capacity — add equipment, add days, add lanes — without a renegotiation cycle. Quarterly reviews keep the lane economics honest.
04 / Built For

Who runs lanes with us.

Contracted capacity is overkill for one-off shipments. It pays back when your freight is recurring, your customers expect transit consistency, and spot-market volatility is eating your margin.

E-Commerce

DTC brands with consistent regional volume

Predictable weekly shipments to a regional fulfillment partner or distribution point. Drop-and-hook trailer pools eliminate dock dwell and keep next-day SLAs honest.

Retail

Retailers on DC replenishment cycles

Weekly or twice-weekly pallet runs into regional DCs. Retailer-compliant labeling, ASN integration, and appointment scheduling handled before the truck rolls.

Manufacturing

Manufacturers with regional distribution

Outbound finished goods on a steady cadence to customer DCs or branch warehouses across the Southwest. Tied directly into your ERP for load tendering.

Construction

Construction supply with project freight

Material deliveries timed to jobsite phasing. Flatbed and dry van capacity coordinated with our construction logistics team for sequenced delivery against build schedules.

05 / FAQ

The questions we get most.

If your question is not here, send it over. Real answers from real dispatch, not a chatbot.

What is a contracted lane?
A contracted lane is a recurring route we commit our trucks and drivers to on a fixed schedule. Instead of bidding on each load, you get the same equipment, same drivers, and predictable transit on a lane we run for you week after week. Pricing locks for the contract term.
Where do you run daily?
Daily lanes from our Tolleson hub go to Las Vegas (US-93), Albuquerque (I-40), and El Paso (I-10). We also run regional and OTR on contract for shippers needing capacity beyond those three. If your lane is not in the network today and the volume justifies it, we will build it.
Can you handle one-off or non-recurring freight?
Our priority is always our own trucks and drivers. If we have capacity, your one-off load runs on our fleet just like contracted freight. If we are tapped out, we can broker the load through Freight Club LLC using vetted carrier partners — but our trucks come first.
What size shipments do you take?
Full truckload is the standard for contracted lanes. LTL, partials, and consolidated freight are available through brokerage. Drop-and-hook trailer pools are available for high-volume contracted shippers so your dock crew never waits on a live load.
How fast can a new contracted lane go live?
From signed agreement to first scheduled run is typically 7 to 14 days. The window covers routing analysis, asset assignment, driver pairing, and one validation run before steady-state. Faster for simple lanes, longer for complex multi-stop or compliance-heavy moves.
