Truck Freight

FTL and LCL, explained with a clear choice for every lane.

FTL gives you a dedicated truck for speed and control. LCL shares truck space so smaller shipments move efficiently without paying for unused capacity.

What It Means

Two truck freight models, each with a different advantage.

FTL and LCL solve different logistics problems. Use FTL when you want a dedicated truck and faster direct transit. Use LCL when you want to share space and control cost on smaller shipments.

FTL - Full Truck Load

Dedicated truck capacity for freight that needs speed, privacy, and less handling.

  • One customer, one truck, fewer stops
  • Faster transit and fewer touchpoints
  • Best for larger or urgent shipments
LCL - Less Than Truck Load

Shared truck space for smaller freight that does not need a dedicated vehicle.

  • Multiple shipments share the same truck
  • Lower cost for smaller freight volumes
  • Best when speed is flexible and cost matters

Best for FTL

High-volume shipments, urgent deliveries, or freight that should stay on one truck.

Best for LCL

Smaller loads, flexible timing, or shipments where cost efficiency matters most.

Shared Value

Both options benefit from tracking, route planning, and proactive shipment communication.

How Freight Moves

A route-based process for truck freight, not a generic card grid.

The flow changes depending on whether your freight is dedicated or shared, but the journey always follows a clear pickup, transit, consolidation, and delivery path.

Pickup

We collect shipment details, choose the right service level, and schedule the truck.

02

Linehaul

Freight moves through the main route with tracking, updates, and proactive coordination.

03

Hub or Cross-Dock

Cargo is consolidated, sorted, or transferred based on the shipment model and destination.

Final Delivery

The load reaches the destination with clear communication through the final mile.

FTL

Best when you need dedicated capacity and minimal handling.

LCL

Best when you want lower cost and your load can share space.
