Purolator » Why You Need TL and LTL Shipping in Your Freight Strategy

Updated: April 18, 2023

Less-than-truckload (LTL) shipping continues to rise in popularity, largely driven by the rapid growth of e-commerce. Today, with increased online competition and a hardline focus on customer service, businesses are more pressed than ever to find freight supply chain efficiencies. Shipping can be a large part of the solution.

If your freight shipments aren’t large enough to fill the full capacity of a truck, then less-than-truckload shipping might be a better fit for your goods. LTL is a flexible freight option that doesn’t compromise on customer experience. It can feel like a big risk to stray from tried-and-true shipping options, but by understanding the opportunities of LTL shipping and what to look for in a shipping partner, you’ll be well-positioned to accurately assess if it’s right for your business.

In this ebook, we’ll cover:

  • LTL vs TL: What’s the difference?
  • How an LTL freight carrier can benefit your business
  • Common LTL freight shipping terminology
  • LTL shipping: Key trends on the rise
  • Roadmap: Finding the right shipping method for your business
  • Reverse logistics: Streamline your freight supply chain
  • What to look for in your shipping provider
