Frequently Asked Questions

If you need a trucking service to transport a larger load but can't justify paying for a full trailer because your freight uses far less space, you have an LTL shipment. Most shipments in this category weigh between 150 and 15,000 pounds. LTL freight is much lighter than full truckloads of freight, which can weigh up to 45,000 pounds.

Traditionally, transporting full truckloads is more cost-efficient than LTL freight shipping. However, LTL freight trucking experts such as LTL Direct  have a solution that cuts LTL hauling prices.

At LTL Direct, we offer a partial load option. This service lets you divide the cost of a full trailer load with other clients sending shipments in the same direction. By consolidating your load and theirs, you can fill a trailer and transport your LTL freight at a lower rate. 

Our ability to offer intermodal shipping lets us send your shipment almost anywhere. We can ship via trucks, rails, water and air. We also have more than 40,000 dry van trailers that can handle LTL freight. We offer special services for perishable goods via our refrigerated dry van trailers. 

We have standardized shipping rates and work to accommodate your needs. The team at Nationwide Transport Services strives to meet all customer requests, and we have systems in place to adjust our digital and standard procedures. We value transparency, so discuss any special requests with us and we'll change details or create a new solution to meet your needs and exceed your expectations. 

LTL Direct knows the importance of having an LTL trucking expert on your side. That's why we employ highly skilled professionals as logistical agents, members of our claims department, customer support representatives and financial specialists.
