Freight shipping is the transportation of large shipments of goods transported domestically or across the globe via air, land, or sea. Any shipment that is larger than 30 inches by 30 inches by 30 inches (or 76.2 cm), or weighs over 150 pounds (or 68.038 kg) is considered freight. Freight delivery shipments can either be loaded onto a truck on pallets or floor-loaded. Similarly, freight forwarders are individuals or organizations that negotiate with multiple carriers to organize shipment of goods from the manufacturer to a final destination (market or customer), acting as an intermediary between a shipper and the shipper’s preferred transportation.
