Dedicated trailers, direct routes, and zero freight handling between pickup and delivery. The fastest, most secure way to move large shipments across the country.
Full Truckload (FTL) shipping means your freight gets an entire trailer dedicated exclusively to your shipment. Unlike LTL, your cargo is the only freight on the truck — it moves directly from origin to destination with no stops, no transfers, and no rehandling at terminals.
FTL is the ideal solution when your shipment is large enough to fill a significant portion of a trailer, typically 10,000 lbs or more, or 10+ pallets. Even if your freight doesn't fill the entire trailer, FTL can still be more cost-effective and faster than LTL for shipments approaching these thresholds.
With SwiftLink's FTL service, you get a dedicated driver, a guaranteed pickup window, and point-to-point delivery with real-time GPS tracking from dispatch to final delivery.

Full truckload shipping delivers measurable advantages in speed, security, and cost-efficiency for large-volume shippers.
Direct point-to-point delivery with no terminal stops, no freight consolidation, and no hub transfers. Your shipment moves straight from origin to destination.
Your freight is loaded once and unloaded once. With no cross-docking, rehandling, or pallet reorganization, the risk of damage or loss drops significantly.
FTL pricing is based on a flat per-mile rate rather than per-pallet or per-hundredweight. For shipments over 10,000 lbs, FTL often costs less than equivalent LTL rates.
The entire trailer is reserved exclusively for your freight. No sharing space, no competing for capacity, and no risk of bumped shipments during peak season.
Choose your pickup date and time. Need an early morning, evening, or weekend pickup? FTL gives you full control over your shipping schedule and delivery appointments.
GPS tracking on every load with automated check-calls, milestone updates, and ETA notifications. Know exactly where your freight is at every moment.
