For shippers
Freight & equipment.
What we haul, where we haul it, and what fits in the trailer.
What states do you operate in?
Delta M Freight serves the 48 contiguous United States. We do not run cross-border freight, so no passport or enhanced licence is needed.
What size trailers do you have?
We primarily run 53-foot dry van trailers, all late models and well maintained.
How many pallets fit in a 53-foot trailer?
26 standard 40×48×48 inch pallets single stacked, or 52 at those dimensions double stacked.
How tall can I stack my pallets?
96 inches.
Do you haul wide loads?
We can haul loads that are a maximum of 102 inches wide.
Do you haul hazmat?
No — we don't haul hazmat loads at the moment.
Can I rent a trailer from you?
Yes. We have dry van trailers available for rent — talk to dispatch about weekly rates.
Can I track my freight?
Every unit carries satellite tracking integrated into our transportation software, so you can see where your freight is at any given moment.
Still wondering?
Ask a person, not a page.
Dispatch picks up around the clock, and nobody reads you a script. Call (219) 273-2555, email, or send a note from the contact page.
Are your drivers licensed and insured?
Yes. Our drivers are all properly licensed and insured. They pass a TSA background security check and obtain certification before they run for us.
What experience do I need?
A minimum of three years verifiable over-the-road experience, a current United States CDL, and you must be at least 24 years old.
We don't currently hire recent CDL-school graduates without road experience, and we don't run a training programme.
When do I get paid?
Weekly, by direct deposit, with a line-item settlement covering miles, accessorials, detention and bonuses. No held-back week and no reserve.
What disqualifies an application?
Two at-fault accidents, wireless handheld device use while driving, impaired driving or DUI/DWI convictions, refusing an alcohol test, or participation in racing.
Will I get an assigned truck?
Yes — assigned, not slip-seated. Late-model equipment, automatic transmissions, with APU, inverter and fridge in every sleeper.
How often will I be home?
You choose the pattern at orientation — weekly, every other week, or a set rotation. We plan lanes around that pattern rather than fitting you in afterwards.
