In logistics, a dedicated truck means capacity is assigned to your freight, lane, facility, or schedule instead of being sourced shipment by shipment. For automotive supply chains, that can include dedicated tractors, trailers, drivers, or recurring route commitments. The goal is consistent equipment availability, predictable pickup and delivery performance, stronger communication, and fewer disruptions to production schedules.
