In the freight world, not every shipment fills an entire trailer. Yet businesses still need reliable, cost‑effective transportation for freight that’s too large for a parcel but too small for a full truckload. Imagine a supply chain where every partially filled trailer moved alone — capacity wasted, costs inflated, and efficiency lost across the network. It’s a scenario that would strain budgets, slow operations, and limit shippers’ flexibility everywhere.
To prevent this, the multi‑billion‑dollar LTL market relies on a shared‑space model that keeps freight moving efficiently: Less‑Than‑Truckload shipping.
LTL allows multiple shippers to share trailer space, consolidating freight based on destination, density, and service requirements. This approach reduces cost, optimizes capacity, and supports the fast‑paced demands of modern distribution.

When it comes to shipping, not every load needs an entire truck. That’s where LTL shipping (Less-than-Truckload) comes in. If you’re looking to move smaller shipments—anything from 150 to 15,000 pounds—LTL shipping is the perfect solution. Rather than paying for a full truck, you share the space with other shipments. This means you’re only paying for the portion your freight occupies, which cuts costs and keeps your budget in check.
While less-than-truckload may take a bit longer due to extra stops as the truck picks up and drops off other shipments, it’s a great way to save on transportation costs without sacrificing efficiency. You get all the benefits of a truckload shipment without having to fill the entire truck. Simple, right?

LTL (Less-Than-Truckload) shipping with us allows you to move freight that doesn’t require a full trailer by sharing space with other shipments. You pay only for the portion of the trailer your freight uses, helping control transportation costs.
LTL shipping is ideal when your freight is too large for parcel but not large enough to justify a full truck. It provides a cost-effective option while still leveraging professional carrier networks.
LTL sits between parcel and full truckload shipping. It’s commonly used for regional distribution, replenishment freight, and shipments moving between warehouses, distribution centers, and retail locations.
We are a third-party logistics (3PL) provider, not a carrier. We partner with a broad network of national and regional LTL carriers to secure competitive rates and reliable service.
LTL freight usually includes palletized, crated, or shrink-wrapped goods such as retail products, industrial equipment, automotive parts, food products, and packaged materials.
Freight class categorizes shipments based on density, handling, liability, and stowability. Accurate classification is critical because it directly impacts your LTL rate and billing accuracy.
LTL shipments move through carrier terminals where freight is consolidated and reloaded. These additional handling points can extend transit times compared to direct full truckload moves.
We leverage carrier relationships, volume purchasing power, and transportation technology to optimize carrier selection, lane pricing, and service levels.
