| Partial
Truckload
If
you have shipments that use less than 35 feet of a trailer,
you can save money while helping to reduce the number
of trucks on our roadways. This service offers you the
exclusive use of a portion of our trailer. Your rate
is based on the portion of the trailer’s capacity
that you use.
How
Does This Service Work?
We
will pick up your shipment with one of our line-haul
trailers. You will load your shipment in the nose of
our trailer. A bulkhead will be installed behind your
shipment. We will then bring the trailer to our service
center where additional freight will be added to the
trailer by our LTL partner. The extra freight will be
delivered prior to your shipments delivery.
If
delivery time is a factor, we might be able to fill
the nose of the trailer with freight, put up a bulkhead,
then bring our line-haul trailer to your facility, then
you would load your shipment on the rear of the trailer
for early delivery. This service requires a call to
our office to determine it’s availability.
What
Type Of Products Is This Service Designed For?
If
you are a shipper of products that you do not want re-handled,
but that do not fill a trailer, this service is for
you. This service is available for products that require
blanket wraps and products that require temperature
control from 0 to 70 degrees. Examples of shippers who
use this service are; manufacturers of high value machinery;
manufacturers and distributors whose shipments are too
expensive to ship using LTL rates; and manufacturers
of fragile and hard to handle products.
