Finding the right freight service type for your specific needs can be challenging. That’s why we at Eternity Logistics have a team of freight shipping experts to help you choose the best freight shipping service that meets your needs and budget. There are several freight options available today; the best of them are as follows:

 

LTL Freight

LTL or Less Than Truckload, is one of the most widely used types of freight shipping as it is incredibly affordable, reliable, and fast service. It is more economical and popular these days among businesses that need a small shipment of goods to be delivered. Moreover, businesses can combine their freight with other companies via LTL freight shipping, saving them the expense of using the complete truckload.

 

FTL Freight 

FTL or Full Truck Load freight shipping transports goods from one shipper to one location by loading the entire truck. This freight type is ideal for packages that need to get to their destination faster and need extra space or special handling.

 

Intermodal Rail Freight

This type of freight shipping works as an economical, practical, and eco-friendly option for shipping hazardous or massive construction materials. Shipping by rail can be less expensive and time-consuming than Shipping by truck. Moreover, the large train networks throughout Canada and the United States make it possible to move freight to most locations in North America. We can also use the rail system to ship conventional containers and huge and overweight things that don’t fit, similar to how trucks can. Trains offer the advantages of increased carrying capacity and no traffic, though they are constrained by the course of the rail they are on.

 

Air Freight

Using air freight to transport your shipment is the quickest alternative for freight shipping. The logistics of shipping smaller packages are handled exclusively by air freight companies. Despite being more expensive than other forms of freight transportation, air freight shipping is the ideal choice for sending urgent and time-sensitive products.

 

Ocean Freight 

Opting for ocean freight is the most economical way to ship cargo worldwide. Shipping options for shipment by boat include different transit times, full container loads (FCL), and less than container loads (LCL).

 

Expedited Freight

Different types of freight can be carried thanks to expedited freight very quickly, also referred to as hotshot services. Hotshot services enable freight to be delivered on the same day, although it is not the same as guaranteed delivery. One carrier is contracted to handle all expedited loads and is solely responsible for meeting your precise delivery deadline.     To learn more about these and other freight services, you can contact Eternity Logistics today at +1-929-429-7237 or by our “contact us” form available on our website.
