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

In 2021, less-than-truckload (LTL) shipping continues to grow in popularity, largely driven by the rapid growth of e-commerce from the pandemic. 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.

LTL shipping is a flexible and cost-effective freight option that offers a way for businesses to pay a fraction of the costs without compromising on customer service. It can feel like a big risk to stray from tried-and-true shipping options, but by understanding the cost-saving 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.
