Truckload (TL)

If you have a time or value-sensitive shipment, or you simply have a large shipment that requires a single truck for the entire load, then Truckload is the right solution for you.

Flatbed trucks - Our fleet includes a variety of equipment to accommodate your freight
Flatbed

Flatbed shipping is the best solution for moving oversized or overweight freight. Since flatbed trailers can be loaded from the top, back, or either side, they offer flexibility for uniquely shaped commodities that can’t fit in an enclosed dry van trailer. From industrial machinery to construction materials and building equipment, there are many ways to use flatbed shipping.
