What Determines LTL Shipping Costs?
Your specific shipment requirements will determine the final LTL cost. When can you expect some shipments to cost more than others? Here are 3 of the most common LTL cost factors.
Freight Classification
We will help to make sure your shipment is classified correctly since it largely determines the rate quote.
The freight class is determined by the shipment’s:
-
-
- Density (What is size and weight?)
- Storage Ability (Is it difficult to store?)
- Handling (Is special handling needed?)
- Liability (Is it perishable or fragile?)
-
Trucking Lanes
The shipment’s destination assists in determining the transit cost. For instance, traveling on a straight highway will have a lower rate than traveling through the mountains.
Special Services
If the shipment requires any special services, i.e., fragile, expedited delivery, etc. it will increase the overall cost.
Is LTL the Best Shipping Option for Me?
If your shipment weighs between 150-15,000 pounds, LTL freight services might be your best solution.

Benefits of LTL Services
When selecting LTL services, have confidence knowing LTL will help your budget, your packages, and the environment.
Cost Savings
When you book an LTL shipment, you only pay for your freight portion of the truck. If your freight is smaller than a full truckload shipment, save money by using LTL services instead of sourcing a full truck.
Reduce Emissions
When shipments share a single truck, it eliminates the need for extra vehicles on the road.
Reduces Damage
LTL freight uses pallets when loading the packages onto the truck, and pallet handling protects the packages from wear and tear.
