What Is Full Truckload (FTL) Shipping?

Full Truckload shipping (FTL) means your freight occupies the entire trailer—no sharing space with other shipments. This typically provides faster transit times, reduced handling, and better shipment control.


FTL shipping is ideal for:

  • High-volume loads.
  • Time-sensitive deliveries.
  • Freight requiring reduced handling.
  • Dedicated shipments that need a full trailer.
  • Regular distribution and supply chain freight.


If your shipment is large enough to fill a trailer—or you want the speed and control of dedicated freight—FTL truckload shipping is the best fit.

How Full Truckload Pricing Works

Truckload freight pricing depends on multiple factors—especially lane and scheduling.


FTL pricing is typically based on:

  • Pickup location + delivery location (lane distance).
  • Equipment type (53’ dry van).
  • Load requirements and special handling.
  • Timing (same-day scheduling vs. planned lanes).
  • Fuel and market capacity.


To provide the most accurate FTL freight quote, we’ll typically ask for:

  • Pickup city/ZIP and delivery city/ZIP.
  • Commodity type (general freight).
  • Total weight.
  • Number of pallets (if applicable).
  • Requested pickup date and delivery timeline.


The more information you provide, the faster we can quote and schedule.
