What We Do
Partial Truckload, also known as Volume LTL (vLTL), Shared Truckload and LTL Consolidation, is defined as shipments that are too large, too heavy, too bulky, and/or too fragile for traditional LTL. Also, shipments too small to fill a whole trailer for Truckload. Typically the size of shipments is 7 to 35 feet of trailer space or 4 to 21 standard sized pallet spots. DON’T OVERPAY FOR VOLUME LTL.
