Full truckload means the trailer is yours. One shipment, one trailer, picked up and delivered direct no consolidation, no extra stops, no other freight touching yours. It's the fastest, cleanest way to move a full or near-full load.

When Full Truckload
Is the Right Call

  • You fill half a trailer or more beyond ~6 pallets, a dedicated trailer is usually the better value.
  • The freight is fragile or high-value sole-load means the least handling and the lowest risk.
  • It's time-critical direct transit with no consolidation is the fastest door-to-door option.
  • It needs temperature control a dedicated reefer holds the load at temperature the whole way.
  • You want security & chain of custody one load, one driver, one set of doors sealed at pickup.

COMMON
QUESTIONS

What shippers ask before booking a full truckload capacity, speed and when it's the right call. Anything else, call dispatch.

What is FTL shipping?

FTL (full truckload) means your shipment takes the whole 53-foot trailer, door to door, with no extra stops or consolidation. It is the fastest option with the least handling ideal for volume, fragile, time-critical or high-value freight.

When should I use a full truckload?

Choose FTL when you fill roughly half a trailer or more, or when freight is fragile, urgent, high-value or temperature-sensitive and you want it untouched and direct. It's the most efficient way to move volume across the border in a single shipment.

How many pallets fit a 53-foot trailer?

A 53-foot dry van holds about 26 standard pallet positions and up to roughly 45,000 lbs of payload, depending on weight distribution and freight class.

Is a full truckload faster?

Usually, yes. FTL runs direct from pickup to delivery with no consolidation stops, so on our core BC and Alberta lanes to Washington and Oregon it moves next-day.
