What is LTL Transport?
LTL shipping (Less-than-Truckload) is a logistics solution designed specifically for businesses that have smaller shipments and don’t require an entire truck for transportation.
Both LTL air freight shipments and LTL sea freight shipments are a cost-effective way to move smaller amounts of goods, as you only need to pay for the space your cargo uses within the truck.
LTL providers work by consolidating multiple shipments from different customers into a single truckload, optimising both space and costs for everyone involved in the shipping process.

Why use LTL shipping?
Cost-Effective
LTL shipping is very budget-friendly for smaller shipments, as it allows you to share transportation costs with other businesses based on the space used. LTL shipping can help reduce shipping costs and increase cost-efficiency by optimising the use of available space.
Flexibility
If you have pallets to move or a smaller volume of goods, LTL tends to be the way to go due to its flexibility. The provider will accommodate your shipment because they can adjust the price to match your shipment size.
Sustainability
LTL shipping can be more environmentally friendly too, as it helps reduce the number of trucks on the road by using only one truck for multiple shipments, lowering emissions and mitigating fuel consumption.
LTL shipping requirements
Proper Packaging
To protect your cargo during transportation, ensure it’s adequately packaged and palletised.
Accurate Weight and Dimensions
Be sure to provide accurate information so you can get the best possible pricing.
Labelling
Always label your shipment clearly with the destination address and contact information.
How much do LTL shipping rates cost?
LTL shipping rates depend on various factors such as the shipment’s weight, dimensions and travelling distance. Unlike full truckload (FTL) shipping, LTL shipping allows multiple shippers to share space on the same truck, making it a more cost-effective option for smaller shipments, but the exact rates will vary as they depend on how much space your shipment will use. Each shipper’s fees combined will cover pickup and delivery, terminal handling and fuel surcharges.

When to choose LTL shipping
If you have a smaller volume of goods, LTL shipping could be the most cost-effective option for you.
Because you’ll be sharing truck space with other shipments, this option also works best when your shipment isn’t extremely time-sensitive. Part of the reason you’re able to save on costs here is due to the flexible nature of delivery timelines when sharing truck space with other companies.
