Full Truckload Transportation — Built for Shippers Who Move Volume
Full truckload (FTL) shipping means one shipper, one truck, one destination — no terminal stops, no shared space, no co-mingling. It's the most direct and controlled way to move freight across the country.
FTL is the right mode for mid-size to enterprise shippers moving high volumes, managing time-sensitive delivery windows, or protecting cargo that can't tolerate additional handling. Retailers, CPG manufacturers, and reverse logistics operations rely on FTL because they can't afford surprises.
At Exodus Logistix, we approach every FTL shipment as an operational problem to solve — not a load to post and forget. Execution matters more than price when a missed delivery window has real consequences.
When Full Truckload Is the Right Choice
FTL isn't always the cheapest option — but for the right freight profile, it's the right call.
High-volume freight
Shipments filling 10+ pallets or exceeding 15,000 lbs benefit from dedicated trailer space and direct routing.
Time-sensitive shipments
FTL moves point-to-point without terminal handling or co-loading delays — critical when delivery windows are firm.
Dedicated trailer requirements
When your freight can't be co-loaded for compliance, security, or handling reasons, a dedicated trailer is the only option.
Long-haul routes
Cross-country and regional long-haul truckload shipping runs more efficiently and predictably as FTL.
High-value or fragile goods
Reduced touches and a single-carrier chain of custody reduces damage risk and simplifies liability.

How Our FTL Process Works
Every load follows a structured process. No surprises, no guesswork.
Load Evaluation & Routing
We assess your freight — dimensions, weight, commodity, origin/destination — and identify the most efficient routing and equipment type before carrier selection begins.
Carrier Selection
We source from our vetted carrier network, prioritizing carriers with proven performance on your specific lane. No blind dispatching to random capacity pools.
Pickup Coordination
Driver and shipper confirmation, appointment scheduling, and pre-load communication are handled proactively — not reactively.
In-Transit Visibility
Real-time tracking and proactive status updates throughout the move. You'll know where your freight is before you have to ask.

Full Truckload Shipping — Common Questions
Answers to questions we hear most from enterprise shippers evaluating FTL options.
What is full truckload shipping?
Full truckload (FTL) shipping means a single shipper's freight occupies an entire trailer — no shared space, no co-mingling with other shipments. It's the standard choice for high-volume freight, palletized loads over 10–12 pallets, time-sensitive shipments, and cargo requiring a dedicated trailer for security or handling reasons.
When should I use FTL vs LTL?
Use FTL when your freight fills most or all of a 48- or 53-foot trailer, when transit time matters (FTL moves point-to-point without terminal stops), when your cargo is high-value or fragile, or when you need a dedicated trailer for compliance or security. LTL is better suited for smaller shipments that don't justify the cost of a full truck.
Do you offer nationwide FTL shipping?
Yes. Exodus Logistix provides full truckload transportation across all 48 contiguous states. We have strong executed capacity on Midwest, East Coast, and Southeast lanes, with particularly deep coverage on California and West Coast routes.
Can you handle time-sensitive truckload freight?
Yes. We regularly manage time-critical FTL shipments including production-dependent loads, retail delivery windows, and event-driven freight. When timing is non-negotiable, we build in proactive communication and escalation protocols from the moment a load is tendered.
Do you support California and West Coast FTL lanes?
West Coast execution is a core strength for Exodus Logistix. We move freight into and out of California — including the Inland Empire, Central Valley, and major port corridors — as well as Oregon, Washington, and Nevada. If you're struggling with West Coast truckload capacity, we can help.
