Why Choosing the Right Shipping Method Matters: FTL vs. LTL Explained

When it comes to moving freight across North America, one size doesn’t fit all. That’s why understanding the difference between Full Truckload (FTL) and Less-than-Truckload (LTL) shipping can help you save both time and money while keeping your supply chain running smoothly.

FTL Shipping
FTL is the best choice when you have enough freight to fill an entire truck or if your shipment is time-sensitive and requires dedicated service. With FTL, you benefit from fewer touchpoints, faster transit times, and added security.

LTL Shipping
LTL is a cost-effective solution for smaller loads that don’t require a full trailer. Your freight shares space with other shipments, making it budget-friendly while still offering reliable delivery across North America.
