All Things Expedited is a series of conversations presented by Expedite All, America’s largest small truck network. We explore the world of expedited shipping—covering industry trends, technology, fraud prevention, cargo security, and the growing role of Small Truckload (STL). With expert insights and real stories from logistics leaders, each conversation brings you closer to the future of fast, reliable freight.
Join our President, Mike Ernst, and VP of Strategic Partnerships, Kristin Ruder, as they sit down with Kateryna Vdovychenko, Director of Communications, to discuss how Expedite All is expanding TSA-certified driver capacity and why secure, compliant ground support has become increasingly important for time-critical shipments.
In this episode, the conversation explores the growth of Expedite All’s TSA-certified driver network, the role these drivers play in airport pickups and deliveries, and how expanded certified capacity strengthens end-to-end execution for urgent freight. The discussion covers industries driving demand—including aerospace, automotive, and life sciences—and why reliability, compliance, and speed matter more than ever.
You’ll also hear how TSA-certified coverage supports air freight operations beyond the runway, common challenges surrounding time-sensitive shipments, and what brokers, forwarders, and shippers need when moving high-priority freight under tight deadlines.
With 600+ TSA-certified drivers today and plans to reach 1,000 by the end of Q2, this episode offers a closer look at how specialized capacity is evolving to support the growing demands of expedited and air freight logistics nationwide.
