Less-than-truckload, or LTL, shipping is designed for freight that does not require an entire trailer. Multiple shippers’ palletized loads share trailer space, with pricing generally influenced by distance, weight, dimensions, freight class, and service requirements. It is commonly used by manufacturers, distributors, and wholesalers moving several pallets or other commercial freight domestically without paying for a full truckload.

Full LTL lifecycle management covers the operational work surrounding freight shipments, including order management, carrier routing, freight bill auditing, claims management, shipment visibility, and carrier performance management.

The scope can help create a more organized, accountable freight process from intake through resolution.

LTL charges are based on several shipment variables, including origin and destination, weight, pallet dimensions, density, freight class, NMFC classification, and carrier capacity. Additional services can add cost, including liftgates, residential or limited-access stops, delivery appointments, and inside delivery. Accurate shipment measurements and location details help prevent reclassifications or billing adjustments after the freight has been picked up.
