Solutions Built Around Your Business

With over 20 years of experience in freight transportation services and operations across all 48 states, US Cargo Enterprise specializes in providing the best freight transportation services tailored to meet your needs and exceed your expectations.

Refrigerated Transport

Cold Chain Expertise, Delivered Fresh

Temperature-sensitive freight demands more than just a reefer truck — it demands precision, accountability, and a carrier who treats every load like it’s their own. Our refrigerated service is built around the strict requirements of perishable shipping, from -20°F to +70°F with logs on every delivery.

Dry Van Shipping

Secure Freight. Every Lane. Every Time.
When your cargo doesn’t need refrigeration, it still needs a carrier you can count on. Our dry van fleet handles the full range of non-perishable freight inside fully enclosed, weather-tight trailers. Standard 53′ trailers carry up to 26 pallets and 45,000 lbs — sealed, GPS-tracked and documented.

Dedicated Service

Your Lanes. Your Schedule.
Your Fleet — Without the Overhead.
If your business runs on predictable freight volumes and consistent routes, dedicated service is built exactly for you. We assign trucks, drivers, and resources specifically to your operation — all the control and reliability of a private fleet without the cost of owning and managing one.

Expedited Service

When Hours Matter, We Don’t Slow Down.

Production shutdowns, missed connections, last-minute orders — some freight can’t wait for standard transit times. We dispatch immediately, route directly, and move your freight at maximum speed without cutting corners on safety or care.
Hotline answered 24/7: (224) 231-6002.

Full Truckload, Explained

All four services run as full truckload (FTL): your freight is the only freight on the trailer, loaded once at your dock and unloaded once at your receiver’s. Nothing is transferred through terminals, co-loaded with strangers’ pallets, or handled in between — which is why FTL is the standard for anything time-sensitive, fragile, high-value or simply large. As an FMCSA-registered interstate carrier, we cover the load with our own equipment and drivers from pickup to proof of delivery.

Reefer or Dry Van? A 30-Second Answer

Whether you are a small business or a large enterprise, our dry van shipping solutions are tailored to meet your needs.

It belongs in a reefer if…

…heat, cold or humidity can damage it: food, beverages, pharmaceuticals, florals, some chemicals and cosmetics. The refrigeration unit protects freight from both summer heat and winter freezing.

Dry van fits if…

…it is shelf-stable and just needs to stay clean, dry and secure. Dry van shipping costs less and books faster because the equipment is more plentiful.

Reefer rates typically run higher than dry van on the same lane because of fuel for the refrigeration unit and tighter equipment supply. Not sure which your product needs? Send us the commodity and lane and a dispatcher will tell you straight. With dry van shipping, you can count on transparent pricing and no hidden fees, ensuring you stay within budget.

Freight Services FAQ

Do you offer LTL, or only full truckload?

If heat or cold can damage it, refrigerated transport. If it’s shelf-stable, dry van. If the same lane repeats weekly, dedicated service usually beats spot pricing. If it can’t wait, expedited runs 24/7 with same-day dispatch. Not sure? Send us the commodity and lane and a dispatcher will tell you straight.

US Cargo Enterprise is a full truckload (FTL) carrier — your freight is the only freight on the trailer. We don’t run an LTL terminal network; for shipments of a few pallets, an LTL carrier is usually the better fit. FTL starts making sense from roughly 10+ pallets, or whenever you don’t want your freight transferred and re-handled between terminals.

We’re an asset-based motor carrier. Your load moves on US Cargo Enterprise equipment, driven by our company drivers or owner-operators leased to our authority — it is not re-brokered to a third-party carrier you’ve never vetted.

Standard loads book against available capacity, usually within your planning window. For urgent freight, the expedited hotline at (224) 231-6002 is answered 24/7 and same-day dispatch is available.

All 48 contiguous states, with regular lanes through the Midwest, South, Southeast and Northwest. Recurring shippers can lock in dedicated capacity on specific lanes.
