LTL (Less-Than-Truckload) shipping is a cost-effective solution for businesses that don’t require a full truckload for their shipments. However, because it involves sharing truck space with other shippers, the logistics of LTL can be complex and challenging. Even minor missteps can lead to delays, damaged goods, or unexpected costs. By understanding the most common mistakes, businesses can enhance their LTL shipping operations, reduce inefficiencies, and keep costs under control.
