Palletized vs. Specialized LTL
There are multiple ways to move your big and bulky freight and knowing which one is right for your supply chain can provide you with more value. Palletized LTL freight shipped on traditional pallets can have a shorter transit time but may incur additional costs due to unfilled space in the trailer or possible damage caused by forklifts. While specialized LTL transit times may be longer, specialized handling techniques can reduce damage rates and help you avoid accessorial costs for unused space.
