Less than truckload (LTL) shipping is a method of transportation used for smaller shipments that do not require a full truckload. It allows multiple shipments from different companies to be consolidated onto one truck, thus sharing the cost of transportation among several shippers.

LTL ground shipping offers cost-effective solutions for businesses with smaller freight quantities, as it eliminates the need to pay for an entire truck when not necessary.

By opting for LTL, you can benefit from cost savings as you only pay for the space your shipment occupies within the trailer. However, it’s important to note that LTL shipments typically take longer to reach their destination due to multiple stops for pickups and drop-offs along the way. Ultimately, the decision to choose LTL shipping should be based on your specific shipping needs, budget, and time constraints.

Less Than Truckload (LTL) pricing takes into account various factors such as the weight, dimensions, distance, and class of the shipment. By utilizing LTL gound pricing, businesses can save costs by sharing truck space with other shipments. LTL rates are typically calculated based on a per-hundred weight basis.

Truckload shipping is ideal for larger, time-sensitive shipments that require the entire capacity of a truck. This option provides more control over the shipping process and can often result in faster transit times. Ultimately, the choice between LTL shipping and truckload shipping depends on the specific needs of your shipment, including size, urgency, shipment value and budget.
