Dry van
Full truckload (FTL)
One shipper, one trailer, one delivery. Your freight is the only freight on board, which means fewer touches, less handling and a direct run to the consignee.
Services
Truckload service built around your dock
TMT HOUSTON SE LLC specializes in 53-foot dry van truckload freight. That focus is deliberate. It lets us be good at one thing: getting a full trailer of general freight from your dock to your customer's dock on time, secured, and with clean paperwork.
Whether you ship a load a month or a load a day, the process is the same. We confirm what we are hauling, plan it to the appointment, keep you informed on the road, and close it out with a signed proof of delivery.
Service types
What we offer
Recurring
Dedicated lanes
Recurring freight on a predictable schedule. Same lane, the same planning, and where possible the same driver who learns your dock and your receivers.
Time-definite
Appointment freight
Deliveries booked to a receiving window at distribution centers and retail DCs, planned backward from the appointment so the truck arrives on time.
Flexible
Drop and hook
Where the facility supports it, we drop an empty trailer for you to load on your schedule and pick it up when it is ready.
Standard
Live load and unload
For shippers without trailer pools. The driver waits while the freight is loaded, and we plan the day around realistic dock times.
General freight
Palletized and floor-loaded
Standard pallets, mixed pallets, and floor-loaded cartons. Tell us how the freight is packaged and we will plan the load around it.
