Less Than Truckload (LTL)
Less Than Truckload (LTL) is a shipping method used for transporting smaller freight loads that do not require a full truck. This service is ideal for businesses that need to send shipments weighing between 150 and 15,000 pounds. LTL carriers consolidate multiple shipments from different customers into one truck, optimizing space and reducing costs.
LTL shipping offers several benefits, including cost efficiency and flexibility. Since businesses only pay for the space their cargo occupies, it can be a more economical option compared to Full Truckload (FTL) shipping. Additionally, LTL services often provide tracking and scheduled delivery options for better logistics management.
