FTL Shipping
FTL Shipping
Service Overview
Full Truckload (FTL) transport refers to shipments that fully occupy the capacity of a truck trailer. Unlike Less Than Truckload (LTL) shipping, FTL shipments do not share space with goods from other customers. This shipping method is ideal for larger loads or shipments requiring faster, uninterrupted transportation. MAVEN MOVING Logistics provides exceptional FTL services across Canada and North America, delivering tailored solutions with efficiency and reliability.
Key Features of FTL Shipping with MAVEN MOVING Logistics
- Full Truck Capacity
FTL shipments utilize the entire truck trailer, ensuring dedicated space for a single customer’s cargo without mixing with others.
- Faster Transit Times
With no stops for consolidation or deconsolidation, FTL shipping ensures quicker delivery times compared to LTL.
- Cost Efficiency
FTL can be more economical for large shipments requiring a full trailer, particularly when transporting high volumes of goods.
- Enhanced Cargo Security
Since the truckload is exclusive to one customer, the risk of damage or theft is minimized, as cargo remains untouched during transit.
- Reduced Handling
FTL shipments involve less handling compared to LTL, lowering the potential for damage during transit.
- No Logistics Classification Needed
FTL shipments are billed based on space usage or distance traveled, eliminating the need for logistics class categorization.
- Direct Delivery
FTL shipments are transported directly from the shipper to the consignee without intermediate stops, ensuring streamlined delivery.
- Volume Discounts
Logistics brokers may negotiate discounts for consistent use of FTL services, offering cost advantages for large-volume shippers.
- Specialized Equipment
FTL services can accommodate unique shipment needs with equipment like flatbeds, refrigerated trailers, or other configurations.
- Cross-Canada Shipping
FTL transport can include cross-docking at distribution centers to streamline regional distribution across Canada.
- Proper Documentation
Essential documents, such as the Bill of Lading and customs paperwork for cross-border shipments, ensure compliance and smooth transit.
- Dedicated Transportation
FTL provides the option for dedicated trucks, reserving the entire trailer for a single shipper’s goods to enhance efficiency and control.
- High-Volume Efficiency
FTL is particularly suitable for large-scale shipments, offering full utilization of the trailer’s capacity and complete control over cargo space.
- Cost Predictability
FTL pricing is typically straightforward, based on either distance traveled or full trailer capacity, making it easier to predict costs.
- Customizable Routes
Shippers enjoy greater flexibility with FTL, as brokers can plan direct routes and delivery times without intermediate stops.
