What is Partial Truckload?

Partial Truckload is a specialized freight service combining the cost-effectiveness of Less Than Truckload (LTL) shipping with the high-quality service of Full Truckload (FTL). For the rug and carpet industry, this means efficiently shipping your products—whether large rolls of carpet or delicate rugs—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
  • Requires a pre-set delivery appointment
  • Bulky or oversized rugs and carpets
  • Heavy products up to 25,000 lbs.
  • Fragile or high-value rugs
