Shipping

What Is Full Truckload (FTL) Shipping?

Full truckload (FTL) shipping is used when your freight fills an entire trailer or requires dedicated space. Your shipment moves directly from pickup to delivery without sharing capacity, reducing transit time and minimizing handling.

It’s the most efficient option for large, time-sensitive, or high-value freight.

When

When to Use Full Truckload (FTL) Shipping

Large shipments

Best when your freight fills most or all of a trailer.

Faster transit

Goes straight from pickup to delivery, with no stops for other freight.

Less handling

Loaded once and unloaded once, so there is less risk of damage.

Long-haul freight

Often the most efficient option for long-distance shipments.
