For Shippers & Business Customers
We prioritize clear quotes, careful cargo handling, direct communication and safe, lawful transportation. Schaner Logistics supports time-critical commercial freight, same-day courier work and eligible medical/STAT deliveries. Shipment acceptance depends on vehicle capacity, service area, insurance terms, timing and applicable requirements.
Before requesting service, please provide pickup and delivery locations, dimensions, weight, commodity, required delivery time and any special handling or site access instructions. Review carrier capabilities and insurance information or see published starting rates.
For Independent Drivers & Delivery Partners
We welcome inquiries from qualified professionals. An inquiry is not an offer of work, employment or a guarantee of available routes. Depending on the assignment and relationship, onboarding may require:
- Valid license and appropriate qualifications for the vehicle and assignment.
- Proof of vehicle registration and insurance when using your own vehicle.
- Relevant driving history, identity verification and legally permissible background screening, subject to required notices and consent.
- Ability to meet cargo securement, safety, confidentiality and customer site rules.
- Acceptance of applicable written safety, substance-use and incident-reporting policies.
- Required tax and contracting documents if engaged as an independent business.
Any drug or alcohol screening requirements will be determined by the actual role, applicable law, contract and written policy. We do not represent all cargo van positions as subject to federal CDL drug-and-alcohol testing rules.
For Carrier & Logistics Partners
Carriers interested in potential overflow, dedicated, or subcontracted transportation opportunities may contact us with their service areas, vehicle types and availability. Before any assignment, we may request operating authority where required, current insurance certificates, equipment details, relevant compliance records and a signed written agreement. Work is subject to customer authorization, applicable transportation rules and an approved scope of service.
Safety, Privacy & Professional Standards
We expect safe driving, lawful operations, cargo protection, respectful customer interactions and prompt reporting of incidents or delivery exceptions. Internal policies, signed agreements, personnel records, screening results and other sensitive onboarding documents are not published publicly. Relevant requirements are provided privately to qualified parties during review.

Strict completeness policy: Every application field must be answered. Enter NONE or NOT APPLICABLE only when truthful and explain why.

Do not include Social Security numbers, full driver’s-license numbers, or medical records in ordinary email; those may require a separate secure verification process. No applicant is approved or dispatched until documentation is verified.
