Partial Load Road (LTL)
The partial load (FTL) service in road transport refers to using only part of the available space in a container or mobile box, allowing for handling goods from multiple customers.
Features
- Partial utilisation of the loading space of the container/mobile box, combining goods from several customers.
- Consolidation of loads/unloads in distribution centres or terminals, from where the shipments are then assembled and distributed.
Types of use
- Shipments with less than the total capacity of the container/mobile box.
- Customers who need flexible services and have no particular urgency in deliveries.
- Situations where you want to balance cost optimisation with the need for efficient load management.
ADVANTAGES
-
Savings
Allows costs to be reduced when insufficient goods are available to justify a full load.
-
Sustainability
Optimises the use of vehicles and reduces the overall number of trips, contributing to greater energy efficiency.
