A Full Truck Load (FTL) refers to a shipment that occupies an entire truck, typically used to transport goods that require the entire capacity of the vehicle. Unlike Less Than Truckload (LTL) shipments, which consolidate multiple smaller shipments from different customers into one truck, FTL shipments are dedicated to a single customer or entity. This mode of transportation is preferred for large quantities of goods or items that require secure, direct transport without stops or transfers along the route.

FTL shipments offer advantages such as faster transit times, reduced risk of damage or loss, and the ability to accommodate specific scheduling needs of the shipper. This makes FTL an efficient and reliable choice for businesses needing to transport significant quantities of goods across long distances.
