FAQ | Expedite Logistics

LTL (Less Than Truckload) shipping is used when your freight doesn't fill an entire truck. You only pay for the space your cargo occupies, sharing the truck with other shippers' freight. It's ideal for shipments between 150 and 15,000 lbs. If you have smaller, regular shipments that don't require a full trailer, LTL is the most cost-effective option.

FTL (Full Truckload) shipping means your freight occupies the entire trailer exclusively. This is best for large shipments over 15,000 lbs, time-sensitive freight, or cargo that cannot be co-loaded with other goods. FTL offers faster transit times since there are no stops to pick up or drop off other freight.

Dry freight uses standard enclosed trailers for non-perishable goods at ambient temperatures. Refrigerated (reefer) shipping uses temperature-controlled trailers that maintain specific temperature ranges (from -20°F to +70°F) for perishable goods, pharmaceuticals, and other temperature-sensitive cargo.

Freight should be properly packaged on pallets where possible, with all items secured to prevent shifting. Label each piece clearly with origin and destination addresses. For fragile items, use adequate padding and clearly mark boxes as FRAGILE. Our team can advise on best packaging practices for your specific cargo.

In the rare event of damage, contact us immediately upon delivery inspection. Document the damage with photos before signing the delivery receipt. Note any damage on the delivery paperwork before the driver leaves. We will open a claims investigation and work to resolve it as quickly as possible.
