Working with Delta

What you
can expect

  • 01A quote from dispatch, not an algorithm

    A person who knows the lanes prices your freight — and answers for it.

  • 02An owner-operator on your freight

    Your freight moves through Delta's owner-operator fleet under Delta's authority. That changes how it is treated.

  • 03A phone that answers until delivery

    No queue, no ticket number.

For shippers

Why shippers
choose Delta

It is your product on that trailer, and your schedule riding on the pickup — here is how Delta looks after both.

  • You book the carrier that hauls it. The company that quotes your freight is the company whose truck backs into your dock — one name, end to end.
  • Equipment your dock can plan around. 53-foot dry vans, 2022 or newer, air-ride with wood floors — and a flatbed division for freight that doesn't ship in a box.
  • Lower-48 authority, east-of-Rockies depth. Delta runs the lower 48 with an east-of-Rockies focus.

Tractor + trailer tracking

Know where your freight is

When your shipment goes active, the approved contacts for that load receive a secure tracking link from dispatch — no account to create, no shipment data on a public page.

Delta uses location updates from both the tractor and the trailer when available. Two reporting sources mean more chances at a fresh position: if one unit goes quiet, the other can still report.

The link shows the latest position on record — where it was, when it reported, and which device sent the ping — plus the ETA to delivery.

Near real time, stated honestly: positions arrive as the tractor and trailer report in, and GPS coverage can vary in transit. The link shows the latest available ping and its timestamp — never an estimate dressed up as live data — and the ETA to delivery is exactly that: an estimate, not a promise.
