How LTL Freight Shipping Can Help Your Business Cut Costs and Scale

If you’ve been relying on parcel shipping to meet your business’s needs, you may have noticed that as volumes grow or shipments get larger, parcel shipping becomes less economical. That’s where Less-Than-Truckload (LTL) freight shipping comes in. LTL freight shipping provides a cost-effective and scalable solution for handling larger shipments without the need for a full truck.

What is LTL Freight Shipping?

LTL freight shipping involves consolidating shipments from multiple businesses into a single truck. This method allows each shipper to pay only for the portion of the truck’s capacity their goods occupy.
