What is LTL Freight Shipping?

Less-than-truckload (LTL) freight shipping is commonly used by businesses when they want to transport small freight or cargo that does not use an entire trailer. It’s still freight shipping, but instead of paying for an entire trailer truck’s worth, a customer can pay for a portion of a trailer that their freight cargo occupies. Other shippers then pay for other portions of the truck while their freight fills up the unused space. If your freight weighs somewhere between 150 to 5,000 pounds, you should consider using LTL freight shipping to reduce your shipping cost.

What are the Benefits of LTL Freight Shipping?

• Minimize costs: When booking an LTL shipment, you only pay for the part of the trailer your freight is occupying. The other unused spaces are then paid by other shippers and they fill their own portions of the trailer.
• Tracking Systems: LTL freight shipping companies often have amazing tracking capabilities. They also have good truck routes that allows your freight to arrive on time. These freight companies use PRO numbers, shipment reference numbers, PO numbers, pick up date range, and other metrics to ensure your freight arrives safely on time.
• Increased security: Since your freight is together with other cargo from different sources, LTL freight shipping companies packaged your freight on pallets. This is done before your freight is loaded onto a truck. The security of a well-packaged pallet is better than shipments who only has smaller handling units.

What are the Factors that Determine Shipping Rates of LTL Freight?

There are several factors that affect how shipping rates are determined for LTL freights. Pricings are regulated by the National Motor Freight Traffic Association, a non-profit organization made up of the biggest interstate motor carriers in the country. These include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Location: The further your shipment location is, the higher the price it will cost.

• Freight Dimensions: Your shipment’s dimensions and weight determines your freight class, which directly impacts the shipping rate of your freight. If you are having trouble calculating your freight’s dimensions, then we recommend checking out our freight & cargo density calculator.
• Shipping Mode: An example of this is that customers can get their LTL shipment expedited by additional fees on top of their quote.
• Freight Type: Freight that requires special means of handling (perishables, hazardous, or fragile items) will likely lead to higher costs.
