Dedicated Transportation FAQs

    • Dedicated transportation, dedicated fleets or dedicated contract carriage (DCC) allow companies to outsource their fleet to third-party logistics companies. A dedicated team within a 3PL takes on all the duties of your transportation network allowing you to maintain complete control of your operations while getting customized trucks and a right-sized fleet. A dedicated fleet means lower cost, responsibility and risk and that you never have to worry about driver management or shortages.

    • Determining whether Ryder’s dedicated transportation solution suits your business involves assessing your transportation needs to understand the potential benefits. Here are some key considerations:

      • Complete Control & Increased Efficiency: A dedicated fleet means complete control over your transportation operations meaning you can streamline operations and eliminate inefficiencies associated with shared resources, resulting in greater efficiency and reliability.
      • Cost Savings: While initial investments like acquiring or leasing vehicles are required, dedicated transportation eliminates the need for outsourcing, leading to reduced costs and increased budget predictability.
      • Scalability and Flexibility: Dedicated transportation offers the ability to scale operations according to your business needs. It accommodates seasonal fluctuations and growth, ensuring your transportation solutions adapt to your changing demands.
      • Customization: Tailor your transportation operations to meet specific requirements, such as specialized equipment or delivery schedules. This flexibility can enhance customer satisfaction and streamline your supply chain.

      Ryder's dedicated transportation solutions are designed to meet your unique needs, offering increased efficiency, enhanced visibility, and improved customer satisfaction.

    • There has been a truck driver shortage plaguing private fleets for several years that is only getting worse due to an aging workforce, high turnover and industry regulations. The American Trucking Association reports that the driver shortage problem is only increasing and that the United States could have a shortage of up to 100,000 drivers by 2028. A shortage of qualified truck drivers is disrupting entire supply chains causing higher costs, longer wait times and shortages across many industries.

      With a dedicated transportation solution Ryder provides support for driver training as well as retention programs to keep experienced drivers including competitive pay and benefits, a voice in the company, work/life balance and choice of routes.
