What is Dallas Teamsters Local 745?
Updated June 2026 · Revolution Picture Cars
Also called Local 745.
Dallas Teamsters Local 745 is the International Brotherhood of Teamsters local that represents drivers, transportation coordinators, and picture car crew on film and television productions across Texas.
Local 745 has crewed major Texas shoots for decades, and productions working in the Dallas-Fort Worth area and statewide under signatory agreements use its members for covered transportation and picture-car services.
Example
A Texas production running union hires its transportation crew under Local 745's agreement, which sets driver classifications, minimum calls, and rates for picture car work in the region.
Figures are illustrative, chosen to show the mechanics rather than to quote market rates.
Where you'll see it
Dallas and the surrounding region, governing the transportation labor budget.
Common mistake
Carrying one blended transportation rate across a multi-state schedule. Each local sets its own rates and classifications, so a Texas leg does not cost what a Georgia leg costs.
