How to Determine If Your Shipment Is LTL or FTL

Image: Determining whether your shipment is LTL or FTL means understanding your freight volume and specific requirements. LTL (Less-Than-Truckload) is for shipments between one and six pallets that share trailer space; FTL (Full Truckload) means booking the entire trailer exclusively. WTM Logistics provides both through its LTL service and freight transport service. When is LTL the right choice? LTL makes sense when you ship 1-6 pallets and your freight can share space with other shipments without risk. You pay only for the space you use. When is FTL the right choice? FTL makes sense when you ship enough volume to fill most of a trailer, when freight requires exclusive vehicle use, or when freight cannot be consolidated. How do weight and size affect the decision? Shipments between 150–10,000 lbs are typically LTL candidates. Above 10,000 lbs or over 6 pallets, FTL becomes more cost-effective. Frequently Asked Questions How do I know if my shipment is LTL or FTL? If you ship 1-6 pallets under 10,000 lbs, LTL is usually right. For more volume or special requirements, FTL is better. Contact dispatch at 587-316-2639 for guidance. Where is the pickup and delivery location? WTM provides door-to-door service — provide both addresses when requesting a quote. What is the approximate weight and size of the cargo? Provide accurate weight and dimensions to get an accurate quote and correct equipment assignment. Determine the right freight option with WTM.
