When full truckload is the right choice
Full truckload makes sense when you have enough freight to fill (or nearly fill) a trailer, when your product is fragile or high-value and you want to minimize handling, or when transit time matters and you can’t afford terminal delays. Because the trailer is dedicated to you, your freight is loaded once at origin and unloaded once at destination — nothing in between.
- Shipments of roughly 10+ pallets, or any load that fills a 53′ trailer
- Fragile, high-value, or sensitive freight that should not be handled repeatedly
- Time-critical lanes where terminal sorting would add days
- Consistent, recurring volume that benefits from dedicated equipment
FTL vs LTL: the short version
Less-than-truckload (LTL) shares trailer space among multiple shippers and routes freight through terminals — economical for small shipments, but with more handling and variable transit. Full truckload keeps your freight on one trailer the whole way. As a rule of thumb, once you’re past roughly six to ten pallets, FTL is often faster, safer, and competitive on cost. We’ll tell you honestly which fits your shipment. Read our deeper FTL vs LTL guide.
Direct, monitored transit
Every FTL move is tracked with check calls and status updates at each milestone. On cross-border lanes we prepare PARS/PAPS and ACE/ACI documentation in advance so the truck clears the border and keeps rolling. If anything changes en route, you hear it from us first.
Equipment and capacity
Our core FTL equipment is the 53′ dry van. When your volume exceeds our own trucks, our licensed brokerage sources vetted, insured partner capacity — so you can scale up for a peak season or a one-off surge without changing partners. Learn more about dedicated freight for recurring lanes.
