What Is LTL Shipping?
Less-Than-Truckload (LTL) shipping allows multiple customers to share space on the same trailer. Instead of paying for an entire truck, you only pay for the portion of trailer space your shipment occupies.
LTL shipping is ideal for businesses that:
- Ship 1–10 pallets
- Have freight weighing approximately 150–15,000 pounds
- Don't require a dedicated trailer
- Want to reduce transportation costs
Because multiple shipments share the same trailer, LTL is often the most economical solution for smaller freight.
