Moving Freight. Shifting Expectations. Driving Success.
- Truckload FreightTruckload freight refers to the transport of large shipments that typically fill an entire semi-trailer. Unlike less-than-truckload (LTL) shipping, where multiple smaller shipments are combined into a single truck, truckload freight involves dedicated shipments with a single customer's goods occupying the whole space. This mode of transportation is often more time-efficient since there are no stops to pick up or deliver smaller loads, making it ideal for transporting bulk items or high quantities of goods over long distances.
- LTL FreightLTL Freight (Less-Than-Truckload) refers to the transportation of goods that don't require the full space of a truck. It consolidates shipments from multiple customers in a single truck, making it a cost-effective solution for smaller freight loads. LTL allows multiple shippers to share space and costs. Ideal for businesses that have smaller shipment sizes, LTL freight often involves multiple stops to pick up and deliver goods.
- Intermodal FreightIntermodal freight involves the transportation of goods using multiple modes of transportation—such as trucks, trains, and ships—without handling the freight itself when switching modes. This system leverages specialized containers that can easily be transferred between ship, rail, and truck, optimizing speed and efficiency, reducing handling costs, and minimizing potential damage. Intermodal transport is especially advantageous for long-distance shipments, as it combines the best attributes of different transport methods.
- Bulk FreightBulk Freight refers to the transportation of large quantities of goods that are unpackaged and typically homogeneous. These goods, such as coal, grain, or minerals, are transported in mass and loaded directly into vessels, trucks, or containers without individual packaging. Due to its nature, specialized transportation methods like hopper trucks, tankers, or bulk carriers are often used. Bulk freight is a cost-effective method for transporting high volumes of products that don't require individual handling.
- Refrigerated FreightRefrigerated Freight, often referred to as 'reefer freight', pertains to the transportation of goods that require a specific temperature-controlled environment. This method ensures perishable goods like fruits, vegetables, meat, dairy, and pharmaceuticals maintain their freshness, quality, and integrity during transit. Specialized refrigerated trucks and containers equipped with cooling systems are employed to regulate and monitor temperatures, making it possible to safely transport temperature-sensitive items over long distances.
- Expedited FreightExpedited Freight refers to the swift and often priority-based transportation of goods to meet tight delivery deadlines or urgent requirements. This service ensures minimal transit times, bypassing standard shipping routes or schedules. Often employing dedicated vehicles and direct routes, expedited freight is the go-to option for time-sensitive shipments, critical equipment, or emergency supplies, ensuring they reach their intended destination as quickly and efficiently as possible.
