Fleet downtime is normal. Scramble courier roulette is optional.
Same class, same proof
If the primary run needed a 16 ft box truck, the overflow quote should too. Wrong class burns the window twice.

One partner across peaks
Overflow works best when receivers already know your tracking and POD standard.
