Comprehensive Service Overview

Whether your freight is moving across town or across the country, Vital Transportation offers a comprehensive array of transportation solutions for your complex shipping needs anywhere in the continental United States or Canada. Our team is highly trained to advise and execute on all types of requests regardless of price constraints, size of shipment, or required time restrictions.

The Vital team is experienced in facilitating shipments to and from Manufacturers, Off Site Warehousing, Job Sites, Military Bases, Airports, and Marine Ports just to name a few. Utilize some of our specialized offerings like TSA compliant/certified, GSA Approved, Haz Mat, Bonded, or our SBA affiliation to service locations and shipments that others cannot. Our extreme attention to detail and strict carrier vetting procedures assure the right service combination gets assigned for the highest level of on time performance. Our staff understands the commitment required to all shipments to ensure the proper equipment, driver credentials, and hours of service all fit to the specifications you require to ensure your product is delivered to your customer according to their expectations.

Dry Van

53’ trailers, team service, air ride, straight truck, and full logistics are just a few of the options we offer to accommodate your unique freight. You can rely on our expertise to help advise creative options for absolute best service/cost option for each unique scenario.

Flatbed

Flatbed freight comes in all shapes and sizes. Whether you need a flatbed, step deck, RGN, side kit, conestoga, or double drop, we’ve got you covered. Our carrier fleet understands how to secure and protect your freight with right combination of equipment including straps, chains, dunnage, corner guards, coil racks, and tarps to name a few.

Over Dimensional Flatbed and Specialized

The additional knowledge and expertise required to handle these shipments plays right into the Vital philosophy. We know and understand the transit times, permit requirements, and special handling needed to accurately estimate transit and safely deliver your shipments to waiting crews on time. Whether you’re in need of over-width, over-height, over-length, heavy haul, or a mixture of all four, Vital will handle all the aspects that are required.

Refrigerated Services

Temperature sensitive shipments require reliable equipment, careful measurement, and specific expertise, we provide all three. For our customers requiring refrigerated service and real-time round the clock visibility we offer door to door solutions for your sensitive temperature control needs.

LTL and Partial Truckload Services

Customer orders do not always come in full truckload quantities. We’ve got relationships with all of the major LTL carriers and can put our volume discount to work for you when the size of the product and time allotted for transport matches up. Too big for LTL but still not a full truckload, we’ve got partial options as well. Let Vital Transportation help you navigate the delicate relationship between time and costs to help you get your smaller orders delivered at a better pricing point.

Container Services

When it comes to port pickups, chassis rental, TWIC card drivers, or trailer stripping, Vital has capacity through our large network of drayage providers.

Intermodal or Air Cargo Services

Sometimes the right truck isn’t a truck at all. That’s why we examine intermodal and air freight options where the time and cost structure works outside of what a truck can provide. Allow us to look at your freight from multiple angles to provide you with the best solutions for your needs.

Hazmat

We offer shipping solutions for Hazardous Materials. With a knowledgeable, trained staff overseeing a carefully-vetted carrier pool, your Hazmat shipments are in good hands. From Corrosive to Flammable and beyond, let our attention to detail stay ahead of your sensitive shipments.

Full Service Options

Many customers require a combination of approaches to their transportation that spans multiple products over multiple modes. Let Vital Transportation use their years of expertise to dissect your transportation needs and provide a series of solutions that will satisfy any array of shipments required. Our customers benefit from complete visibility into our shipping processes and we will give you the guidance that you need every step of the way. We eliminate surprises by keeping your customers informed giving you the peace of mind that comes from knowing where your freight is at any moment.
