LESS-THAN-TRUCKLOAD (LTL) SHIPPING

 LTL shipping is used when a shipment requires only a portion of a trailer's space rather than a full truckload. It is commonly used for smaller palletized shipments and helps reduce transportation costs by sharing trailer space with other freight. 

 LTL can be a cost-effective solution for smaller shipments that do not require a full trailer. It allows shippers to pay only for the space they need while still receiving dependable freight transportation.

 LTL shipments are tracked using carrier-assigned shipment labels and tracking numbers. Sandell Transport helps monitor shipment progress and can provide updates throughout transit. 

 Volume LTL is a good option for larger LTL shipments that are still less than a full truckload. This may be a more cost-effective solution for shipments requiring significant trailer space but not a dedicated truck. 

 Accessorials are additional services required for pickup or delivery, such as liftgate service, residential delivery, access to limited-access locations, or special handling. Identifying these needs upfront helps prevent delays and unexpected costs.
