LTL vs. Parcel Shipping: How FreightSimple Makes LTL Shipping Easy for Your Business

When shipping goods, businesses have various options to consider, including Less-Than-Truckload (LTL) and parcel shipping. In this blog post, we will explore the differences between LTL and parcel shipping and explain how FreightSimple simplifies LTL shipping for your business needs.

LTL Shipping

LTL shipping is designed for shipments that are too large for parcel carriers but do not require a full truckload. Some advantages of LTL shipping include:

• Cost-effectiveness for larger shipments
• Flexible service options, such as liftgate and inside delivery
• Consolidation of shipments from multiple shippers

Parcel Shipping

Parcel shipping is ideal for smaller, lighter shipments that can be handled by parcel carriers like FedEx, UPS, or DHL. Some benefits of parcel shipping include:

• Lower costs for smaller shipments
• Faster transit times for small packages
• Access to extensive carrier networks
