YK Freight provides power-only trucking services for shippers, brokers, and carriers who need reliable tractor capacity to move their own trailers.
We specialize in drop & hook freight, trailer repositioning, and dedicated power-only lanes across Georgia and the Southeast region.
What Is Power-Only Trucking
Power-only trucking means a carrier provides the tractor and driver, while the shipper supplies the trailer — ideal for:
- Trailer pool programs
- Yard-to-yard transfers
- Port and rail dray-outs
- Regional or over-the-road repositioning
- Drop & hook distribution
YK Freight ensures ELD-tracked tractors, insured operators, and dispatch visibility from pickup to return.

- Georgia statewide: Savannah, Atlanta, Macon, Augusta, Columbus, Dalton
- Southeast region: Alabama, South Carolina, Tennessee, Florida, North Carolina
