WHAT IS FULL TRUCKLOAD (FTL) SHIPPING?

FTL (full truckload) shipping means your shipment gets an entire truck trailer all to itself - usually a 53 foot dry van or a flatbed, possibly even a refrigerated trailer. Not like LTL where space is shared with other shipments, FTL means you've got the whole truck from pick up to delivery all to yourself - no sharing, no terminal stops, no unnecessary handling.

FTL is the way to go when you've got at least 10 pallets, or 10,000 + pounds, or enough freight to fill most of a trailer. Its the fastest shipping method and most secure too because your cargo never leaves the truck - no terminals to stop at, no transfers to make, no messing around.

Dedicated truck, straight to the destination - no messing about
No sharing the space with other shipments - right from pick up to delivery.
Fastest transit times
Typically 1-3 days faster than LTL for the same route.
The lower risk of damage
Your freight stays safe and sound with minimal handling.

WHEN DO YOU NEED FTL?

FTL is the best choice when speed, security, or sheer volume of freight justify a whole truck to yourself.

  • Your Shipment Fills Up A Trailer

    Typically 10 pallets or more, or 10,000lbs or better - when you have enough stuff to make loading a whole truck worthwhile.

  • Time Is Money

    FTL is way faster than LTL because there are no pesky stops at terminals or delays from consolidating with other shipments.

  • Send Something Fragile, Valuable Or Sensitive

    Equipment that can't afford to get knocked about, expensive goods or simply something you don't want to risk losing.

  • When Time Is Of The Essence

    Manufacturing on a just-in-time schedule, perishables or anything else that just can't afford a delay.

FTL vs LTL: WHICH IS RIGHT FOR YOU?

Understanding the difference helps you choose the most cost-effective and efficient shipping method.

  • CHOOSE FTL WHEN:

    You have 10+ pallets or 10,000+ lbs
    Enough freight to justify a dedicated truck.
    Speed is critical
    Faster transit with no terminal stops or consolidation delays.
    Cargo is fragile or high-value
    Minimal handling reduces risk of damage and loss.
    You need scheduling flexibility
    Dedicated truck means control over pickup and delivery times.

  • CHOOSE LTL WHEN:

    You have 1-10 pallets
    Too small to fill a truck but too big for parcel.
    Cost savings matter more than speed
    Pay only for the space you use by sharing a truck.
    Your freight is durable
    Can withstand additional handling at terminals.
    Flexible on delivery timing
    A few extra days in transit is acceptable.
