The Consolidated Cargo Freight service, also known as LTL, Less than Truck Loaded, is a lower cost alternative, more accessible for importing and exporting companies; being a comprehensive service, in which the logistics service provider is responsible for both the collection, delivery, coordination of shipments, storage loading and unloading operation, inventory, as well as all the corresponding customs procedures.
The main characteristic of this service is that the merchandise to be transported does not occupy the entire container; therefore, it is integrated with other cargo that can be grouped to make transportation more profitable. When the goods do not have a very short delivery time, it is the most convenient and cost-effective alternative.
When there is a need to ship goods that are not large, where delivery times are not so tight and no special conditions are required to preserve the cargo, LTL service is ideal.
