LTL Shipping FAQs

Freight class is a standardized numerical system (50 to 500) used by LTL carriers to determine pricing. It is based on four factors: density, handling, stowability, and liability. Higher classes typically represent lighter, more fragile, or more difficult-to-handle items.

Freight should be secured to a sturdy, standard-sized pallet (typically 48"x40") and shrink-wrapped to prevent shifting. Ensure every pallet is clearly labeled with the destination address and has a Bill of Lading (BOL) attached.
