Partial Truckload Services

What are Specialized Freight Services

Specialized freight services involve unique cargo types requiring special handling, equipment, or expertise, such as oversized, hazardous, perishable, or fragile goods. Examples include heavy haulage for large equipment, refrigerated transport for perishables, hazardous materials transportation, and white glove delivery for delicate items like artwork. Carriers have specialized equipment, trained staff, and certifications for safe transportation.
