LTL Freight Shipping

Alpha Trans provides efficient LTL freight transport that gets your smaller shipments where they need to go through our extensive cross-border trucking network.

A shipment is considered LTL when it does not fill a standard 53-foot trailer — typically ranging from 100 to 10,000 pounds. By safely consolidating your freight with other shipments, you save on costs without sacrificing speed or reliability.

Benefits of LTL Shipping

Cost-effective — Pay only for the trailer space you use, not a full truck. Flexible — Ship diverse loads to multiple destinations across Canada and the US. Fast — No waiting until you have a full truckload. Ship when you’re ready. Pickup assistance — Inside delivery, sorting, lift gate service, and pallet jacks available.

When to Choose LTL

LTL is ideal for e-commerce businesses, manufacturers with partial loads, and companies shipping to multiple destinations. Rates are calculated by weight, freight class, and distance.
