truck in

Transport goods inward

To truck in is to bring something from elsewhere by vehicle, often implying it's not locally available or native to the place: They trucked in sand for the beach volleyball court.

The phrase emphasizes the effort or artificiality of importing what isn't naturally present: The restaurant trucks in fresh seafood daily from the coast.
