PARTIAL SERVICES

Partial Truckload Services: The Middle Child

Partial truckload shipping is similar to the middle child. Often overshadowed by the older sibling, full truckload, and the younger sibling, less than truckload (LTL), the middle child, partial truckload services is a rich blend of the two. Partial truckload is a shipping method that normally involves a shipment greater than 7,000 pounds or 6 or more pallets. A partial truckload shipment does not require a freight class, involves less handling, and yields a faster transit time.

Partial truckload services are beneficial to shippers looking for a cost-effective solution that involves low-density freight, fragile freight, no freight class (avoiding extra charges for re-classification).

Other partial truckload benefits entail:

• One Truck - Freight stays on one truck during the duration of the transit

• Avoid Extra Freight Class Charges

• Less Freight Handling = Reduction of damage during unloading and loading

• Fast Delivery Times with Fewer Stops
