A Dedicated Trailer, Planned Around Your Freight
Full truckload service gives your shipment its own trailer from pickup to delivery. We start with your freight, route and schedule, then match the equipment and carrier to the load.
One Shipment, One Trailer
Your freight moves directly from pickup to delivery without stops at sorting terminals, which means less handling and more predictable timing.

Call 1-844-488-SHIP (7447) →Full Truckload, Partial Truckload or LTL?
Trailer space, weight, handling requirements and scheduling all matter. A shipment does not have to fill every inch of a trailer for dedicated capacity to be worth considering.
| Option | Often a fit when | What to know |
|---|---|---|
| Full truckload | About 12 or more pallets, roughly 15,000 lbs or more, or freight that needs a dedicated trailer | The trailer is yours. Freight moves direct with less handling and more control over timing. |
| Partial truckload | Too large for LTL but not enough to fill a trailer | Shares trailer space with few or no other shipments and usually avoids terminal transfers. |
| LTL / Volume | One to several pallets that can share a trailer | You pay for the space you use. Freight class, density and accessorials affect the rate. |
Tell us about your freight so the equipment and service requirements can be reviewed before booking. If you only have a few pallets, see our LTL / Volume service.

Small Details That Change a Truckload Quote
Many truckload requests we receive turn out to be a few pallets that ship better as LTL or volume freight, or loads that need different equipment than first expected. Sharing these details up front saves time.
- Exact pallet count and whether the freight can be stacked
- Total weight, including pallets and packaging
- Dock or forklift access at both locations
- Appointment windows and how long loading usually takes
- Any lumper, driver-assist or extra-stop requirements

Is there one weight that makes a shipment full truckload?
No. Weight is one factor alongside space, equipment and handling requirements. Send your shipment details so the options can be reviewed.
What if I only have a few pallets?
Our LTL / Volume service may be a useful starting point. The route and freight requirements will help determine the fit.
How much freight fits in a 53-foot dry van?
As a general guideline, a 53-foot dry van holds up to 26 standard 48-by-40-inch pallets on the floor, and most loads are limited to about 42,000 to 45,000 lbs of freight. The exact limit depends on the truck, the trailer and how the weight is distributed.
Does requesting a quote book the truck?
No. A quote request starts the review, and nothing is booked until you confirm the rate, equipment, timing and booking details with our team.
