What is LTL SHIPPING?

LTL is an acronym for “less than truckload.” As the name suggests, LTL freight shipping is used to transport smaller packages that don’t require a full truck. If your freight doesn’t need a full truckload, LTL is your solution!

At Carlile, we provide fully integrated transportation and shipping logistics solutions, including LTL services. We specialize in transporting dry and refrigerated goods between Alaska, the contiguous United States, and Canada. Our team is equipped to handle your LTL shipment quickly and efficiently so you can get back to business as usual.

What Are the Benefits of LTL Shipping?

There are many benefits to choosing LTL shipping for your smaller freight needs, including:

  • Cost-effectiveness: LTL shipping is more cost-effective than full truckload shipping because you only pay for the space your shipment occupies on the truck. This can save you a significant amount of money, especially if you don’t have a lot of freight to ship.
  • Increased flexibility: LTL shipping gives you more flexibility in terms of shipping schedules and routes. This can be a major advantage if you need to ship your freight on a tight timeline.
  • Enhanced safety: LTL shipments are typically loaded and unloaded less often than full truckloads, which reduces the risk of damage to your freight.

If you’re looking for a cost-effective, flexible, and safe shipping solution, LTL shipping is the way to go!

How Does LTL Shipping Work?

LTL shipping works by consolidating your shipment with other shipments going to the same general area. This means your shipment will share space on the truck with other shipments, which helps to keep costs down.

Once your shipment is consolidated, it will be transported to its destination via truck. Depending on the size and weight of your shipment, it may be delivered by a small or large truck. Once your shipment arrives at its destination, it will be unloaded and delivered to you.
