HMD Trucking prides itself on its large, diverse fleet of over 500 vehicles to meet the every-demanding logistics market of Chicago. This impressive pool of over 150 specialized flatbeds, 200 refrigerated trucks, and 100 modern tankers can serve the transport of an entire gamut of goods-from the sensitive ones like dairy products, pharmaceuticals, to heavy construction materials including steel beams and concrete.

Navigating the world of CDL flatbed driving requires a unique blend of skill and adaptability. You are not only delivering cargo as a CDL flatbed driver but also responsibly securing different cargo types, each bringing in its own different sets of challenges. Unlike dry van or refrigerated trucking, oversized or irregularly-shaped items like construction materials are moved by flatbed loads, including heavy machinery. Mastery of securing the load through chains and tarps is important.

The team driving is done under the role as a CDL A team driver. In this role, two drivers work together side-by-side to maximize productivity and help each other in making timely deliveries. The alternative case to solo driving comes up in this situation, as team drivers alternate between driving and resting. This results in the truck moving almost 24/7 and considerably reduces the time for delivery.
