Full Truckload

Full truckload planning with the shipment requirements defined first.

FTL coordination begins with understanding the commodity, equipment needs, facility constraints and delivery expectations — before recommending capacity or confirming a rate.

When this service fits

Full truckload is typically the right choice when a shipment fills or nearly fills a trailer, when the commodity requires exclusive use of the equipment, or when transit time and handling requirements make shared space impractical.

  • Shipments that fill or nearly fill a 48- or 53-foot trailer
  • Commodities that require exclusive trailer use
  • Time-sensitive freight where direct transit matters
  • Freight that cannot be handled or stacked with other shipments
  • Loads with specific temperature, security or equipment requirements
  • Recurring lanes where consistent capacity planning is valuable

Equipment considerations

Dry Van
Enclosed trailer for general freight that does not require temperature control or open-deck loading. Standard for most manufactured goods, packaged products and palletized freight.
Refrigerated (Reefer)
Temperature-controlled trailer for freight with specific temperature requirements. Requires confirmation of temperature range, pre-cool requirements and any continuous monitoring needs.
Flatbed
Open-deck trailer for freight that cannot be loaded through a standard trailer door — oversized equipment, building materials, machinery and similar commodities. Securement requirements vary by load.
