FAQs – FTL & LTL shipping solutions

FTL (Full Truckload) shipping means your shipment occupies an entire truck. It’s the ideal choice when you have enough cargo to fill a truck or require a direct, point-to-point delivery.

LTL (Less Than Truckload) shipping combines freight from multiple shippers into one truck. You only pay for the portion your goods occupy, making it cost-effective for smaller shipments (typically between 100 and 5,000 pounds).

A freight broker connects shippers with carriers, negotiating rates and arranging transportation. FTL/LTL fulfillment, on the other hand, is a service provided by 3PL companies that manages the entire logistics cycle — from storage and packing to transportation and delivery.

3PL (Third-Party Logistics) encompasses warehousing, fulfillment, and transportation services. FTL/LTL shipping refers specifically to freight transportation options that a 3PL provider may offer, with FTL for larger shipments and LTL for smaller ones.
