Wholesale distribution executives looking to cut costs and streamline their operations should consider an LTL (less than truckload) shipping provider. Why Ship LTL? According to Modern Distribution Management, the cost of transporting freight by LTL is half the cost of transporting by standard ground parcel, and one third of the cost of shipping overnight by air. In light of this, it might be worth re-evaluating whether your current shipping needs can be met by an LTL shipping provider. What is LTL? LTL shipping (sometimes called pallet shipping) is a method of over the road transportation where freight from various shippers is consolidated with freight headed to the same general area with the goal to maximize the capacity of the trailer, thus passing on cost savings to customers. Is LTL for you? Shipments that are good candidates for LTL service typically weigh between 150 and 20,000 lbs. For many distributors, shifting the mindset from “when the product needs to be shipped by” to “when the product needs to arrive by” will open up more options with regards to shipping and this extra bit of future planning can allow LTL shipping to be a contender in the regular distribution plan. One of the biggest benefits of LTL shipping is the availability of a regular schedule. At CSA, for example, if an order is placed before 2PM local time, it will generally be picked up that very same day and will be scheduled to load on the next available truck. Many LTL companies have regular departures weekly, thus allowing more accurate planning for shipment arrivals. When considering long-haul deliveries traveling late in the week (Thursday or Friday), trucking companies like CSA excel and can typically deliver early the very next week - something that is comparable, if not better than a standard parcel service or a bus freight service. (Have a look at our recent blog post about Scheduling a Freight Pickup to help ensure you get even better service from your LTL company). Within the last few years less than truckload shipping has become extremely accessible for small businesses as most will now accept visa and mastercard as payment for shipments. Gaining a good understanding of whether your freight constitutes an LTL shipment as well as the availability of routes and shipping schedules from your shortlisted providers can vastly reduce transportation costs, making now the perfect time to evaluate how this distribution method can work for you.
