LTL Freight
Shipping
Shipping 1–7 pallets? LTL is your most cost-effective option. Pay only for the space you use — backed by a national carrier network and hands-on brokerage support.
What is LTL Freight?
Less-than-truckload (LTL) shipping is the smart choice when your freight doesn't fill an entire trailer. Instead of paying for unused space, your shipment shares trailer space with other freight — and you only pay for what you use. At X Logistics, we connect you to a curated network of national, regional, and micro-regional LTL carriers to find the best rate and service level for your lane.
When to Choose LTL
- Your shipment is between 1 and 7 pallets (up to ~10,000 lbs)
- You don't need exclusive use of a trailer
- Your freight is palletized or can be made freight-ready
- You're looking to reduce per-unit shipping costs
- Transit time flexibility of 1–5 business days is acceptable
How X Logistics Handles LTL
We shop your freight across our carrier network — national carriers like Old Dominion, Estes, and ABF, regional carriers that dominate specific lanes, and micro-regional carriers for local density — to find you the best combination of price, transit time, and reliability.
Every LTL shipment gets a Bill of Lading, a pro number for tracking, and active monitoring from our team. We don't just book and disappear. If there's a delay, a re-route, or a damage issue, we handle it — you don't have to chase the carrier yourself.
LTL Freight Classes & NMFC
LTL pricing is driven by freight class (18 classes ranging from 50 to 500), which is determined by density, stowability, handling, and liability. Getting this wrong means unexpected charges. Our team helps classify your freight correctly from the start — saving you from costly reclass fees and invoice surprises.
