What is Partial Truckload?

Partial Truckload is a specialized freight service that combines the cost-effectiveness of Less Than Truckload (LTL) shipping with the high-quality service of Full Truckload (FTL). For home furnishing and lighting, this means you can efficiently ship your products—whether large furniture pieces or delicate lighting fixtures—without needing a full truckload. This service is ideal for shipments requiring careful handling and timely delivery.

It’s particularly suited for shipments that have one or more of the following characteristics:

  • 5-21 pallets
  • Up to 35 ft of trailer space
  • Require a pre-set delivery appointment at destination
  • Bulky or oversized furnishings
  • Heavy items up to 25,000 lbs.
  • Fragile or high-value lighting products
