Partial
Stuck between LTL and FTL? Partial truckload is your answer. We match your freight with compatible co-loads to fill the truck, giving you FTL-level handling and speed with proportional pricing — ideal for shipments of 6–18 pallets that don't justify a dedicated truck.
What is Partial Truckload?
Partial truckload (PTL) occupies more space than LTL but less than a full truck. Unlike LTL, partial loads typically travel with only one or two co-loads, meaning fewer stops, less handling, and faster transit. You pay for your portion of the truck while benefiting from the direct routing and care of a near-dedicated service.
Ideal For:
- Mid-volume shippers
- Fragile or high-value goods
- Shippers needing fewer handling touches
- 6–18 pallet shipments
Applications:
- Retail Distribution
- Industrial Supplies
- Consumer Products
- Trade Show Freight
