Is Less-than-Truckload (LTL) freight suitable for small businesses or individuals with smaller shipments?
This shipping method is designed for cargo that doesn't require the full space of a truck, making it an ideal, cost-effective solution for those who have smaller freight volumes. LTL allows multiple shippers to share the space and cost of a single truck, which is especially beneficial for small businesses and individuals looking to minimise shipping expenses. It also offers flexibility in shipment size and frequency, which can be advantageous for businesses with fluctuating shipping needs. Additionally,Maersk provides a range of services such as tracking and specialised handling, which can further cater to the specific needs of small businesses and individual shippers.
