Description | Common Equipment | |
---|---|---|
Less-Than-Truckload (LTL) | Less-than-Truckload (LTL) refers to shipments that do not utilize the full capacity of a trailer, typically weighing less than 20,000 pounds. LTL carriers operate through a network of terminals, where freight is unloaded and consolidated until reaching its final destination. | Dry Vans, Straight Trucks, Liftgate Trucks |
Volume LTL | Volume LTL rates align with standard LTL shipments, applying to shipments exceeding 5,000 lbs or surpassing 12 linear feet of a trailer. In cases of low-density shipments, standard LTL rates may be deemed invalid, necessitating the use of volume rates. | Dry Vans, Straight Trucks |
Partial Truckload | Partial truckload, often referred to as "volume LTL" by some carriers, occupies the middle ground between less than truckload (LTL) and full truckload shipments. If your shipment is too substantial for LTL but doesn't fill an entire truckload, it likely falls within the ideal category of a partial truckload shipment. | Dry Vans, Flatbeds |
Truckload | Truckload services provide shippers with full access to the trailer's entire capacity, facilitating direct shipments from point A to point B without the need for transloading. | Dry Van, Flatbed, Refrigerated, Specialty |
Expedite | Expedites refer to specialized carriers focused on swift pickups and deliveries. This category encompasses vehicles like sprinter vans and straight trucks, often utilizing team drivers, and may even involve air shipping for accelerated transportation. | Sprinter Vans, Straight Trucks, Teams, Air |
LCL or FCL | International shipments involve both exports and imports, typically necessitating additional information due to the complexities of cross-border logistics. | 20' or 40' Containers |
