What to Expect when Shipping LTL

Typically, Manitoba LTL freight carriers will utilize enclosed or covered van trailers with rollup doors, though swing door trailers are also common. Climate controlled trailers are also used for perishable LTL deliveries. Smaller palletized freight and shipping crates are frequently used for LTL shipping and cargo is often consumer goods and supplies.

LTL Freight is often handled multiple times during transit so it’s important to ensure its proper packaging to protect it from damage.

When you ship LTL, you want to know that your load is tracked and cared for. That’s what the Manitoba LTL freight brokerage people at American Freight Inc are here for. But unlike many LTL brokers who are just a guy with a computer and a contact book, we started as a trucking company and we retain close ties with our sister companies F.V. Martin Trucking Co Martin Transportation Co. As such, we know first-hand the challenges that truckers and shippers face, and can anticipate many of them to ensure the best possible results for our customers.

LTL Trucking FAQ

What is LTL trucking?

LTL (Less Than Truckload or Less Than Load) refers to shipping goods on a trailer that fills less than the trailer’s full capacity, and at a fraction of the cost of paying for an entire trailer. Several customers can all use the same truck to have their goods delivered. Both LTL and FTL (full truckload) shipping refer to the amount of product that needs to be shipped rather than the type of product.

How many pallets is considered LTL?

Usually between one and six pallets is considered in the range of LTL, and under a weight of 10,000 lbs.

How are LTL freight rates calculated?

There are a variety of factors that go into the rates at which freight is charged. When it comes to LTL loads, the first factor is weight. The more weight you ship, the better the cost. The second factor is density, which affects the amount of area taken up on the truck. Distance is another factor, along with ease of handling, value, and liability. If you are curious about a particular load, we encourage you to get a quote from our brokers.
