Regional/Dedicated Van Lease FAQ
- What's the difference between regional and dedicated dry van leasing?
-
Regional dry van lease operators haul freight within a specific geographic area, which can provide more consistent routes and home time. Dedicated trucking typically involves hauling freight for specific customers or running consistent lanes on a regular schedule. Both options offer steady freight opportunities, depending on a driver's preferred lifestyle and goals.
- What makes dry van freight appealing for lease operators?
-
Dry van freight is known for steady demand, consistent freight availability, and less specialized handling requirements. It's one of the most consistent freight types in trucking, making it a popular choice for lease operators seeking stability.
- What are the benefits of becoming a regional or dedicated dry van lease operator at ATS?
-
Regional and dedicated dry van lease operators at ATS enjoy steady freight, competitive earning potential, and more consistent home time. Regional routes often keep drivers closer to home while still providing reliable miles throughout the Midwest and surrounding areas. Dedicated dry van routes provide predictable schedules and stable freight opportunities.
