FTL vs. LTL: Which is Right for Your Business?

Choosing between Full Truckload (FTL) and Less-than-Truckload (LTL) shipping can be tricky, especially if your logistics needs are evolving. At NorthPass, we help businesses navigate the differences so they can make the most cost-effective, timely decision.

FTL shipping means your freight takes up the entire truck and goes directly from point A to B. It’s ideal for large, time-sensitive shipments that need maximum security and minimal handling.

On the other hand, LTL shipping is perfect for smaller loads that don’t require a full trailer. Your cargo shares space with other shipments, helping cut costs—great for startups or small to mid-sized businesses with flexible delivery schedules.

We offer both, but we don’t just give you options—we provide guidance. Our logistics consultants assess your volume, route, budget, and urgency to recommend the best method for every shipment. It’s this kind of proactive support that makes NorthPass a long-term partner, not just a provider.
