LTL freight, simplified

What is LTL?

Less than truckload (LTL) freight shares trailer space with other shipments, so you only pay for the portion of the trailer your goods occupy instead of booking a whole truck.

When to use LTL

LTL is a good fit for palletized shipments that do not fill a trailer — roughly one to six pallets, or loads under about 15,000 pounds.

How LTL pricing works

A few inputs determine your LTL rate. Getting them right keeps your quote accurate.

Freight class & weight

LTL pricing is driven by freight class (based on density, handling, stowability and liability) along with the weight of your shipment.

Dimensions

Accurate pallet dimensions matter — they determine how much trailer space your freight uses and help avoid re-rating after pickup.

Accessorials

Add services as needed: liftgate, residential pickup or delivery, inside delivery, limited-access locations, and airport handoff for freight forwarders.

Frequently asked questions

What is LTL freight shipping?

LTL (less than truckload) shipping moves freight that does not fill an entire trailer. Your shipment shares trailer space with others, so you only pay for the space you use.

How much does LTL shipping cost?

LTL cost depends on freight class, weight, dimensions, distance, and any accessorials. The fastest way to know is to compare live carrier rates for your exact shipment.

How do I get an accurate LTL quote?

Provide accurate weight and pallet dimensions and select the right freight class and accessorials. Better inputs mean fewer post-pickup re-rates and surprises.

How long does LTL shipping take?

Transit time depends on the lane and carrier. When you compare rates, each option shows its transit estimate so you can weigh speed against price.

What accessorials might I need?

Common add-ons include liftgate, residential pickup or delivery, inside delivery, and limited-access locations. Freight forwarders can also select airport handoff.
