Description | Common Equipment | |
---|---|---|
Less-Than-Truckload (LTL) | Less-than-Truckload (LTL) pertains to shipments that do not occupy the entire capacity of a trailer, usually weighing under 20,000 pounds. LTL carriers function through a network of terminals, where freight is unloaded and consolidated before reaching its ultimate destination. | Dry Vans, Straight Trucks, Liftgate Trucks |
Volume LTL | Volume LTL rates correspond to regular LTL shipments, applicable to consignments weighing over 5,000 lbs or extending beyond 12 linear feet of a trailer. In instances of low-density shipments, the regular LTL rates may be considered void, requiring the utilization of volume rates. | Dry Vans, Straight Trucks |
Partial Truckload | Partial truckload, sometimes termed "volume LTL" by certain carriers, occupies the intermediate space between less than truckload (LTL) and full truckload shipments. If your shipment is too large for LTL but doesn't fill an entire truckload, it likely falls within the optimal category of a partial truckload shipment. | Dry Vans, Flatbeds |
Truckload | This mode of freight transportation is particularly beneficial for larger shipments that occupy the entirety of a standard truckload. Unlike less than truckload (LTL) shipments, where goods from multiple shippers are consolidated, truckload shipments cater exclusively to the cargo of a single shipper. | Dry Van, Flatbed, Refrigerated, Specialty |
Expedite | Expedites are specialized carriers dedicated to prompt pickups and deliveries. This category includes vehicles such as sprinter vans and straight trucks, frequently employing team drivers. In some cases, expedited services may even involve air shipping to expedite transportation further. | Sprinter Vans, Straight Trucks, Teams, Air |
LCL or FCL | Global shipments encompass both exports and imports, often requiring extra information due to the intricacies of cross-border logistics. If you route international, ship it TLI! | 20' or 40' Containers |
