Less Than Truckload (LTL) Shipping

LTL Freight for Dry & Temperature-Controlled Goods in Canada & the U.S.

GMK Strategic Solutions provides less than truckload (LTL) shipping for businesses that move dry goods, palletized freight, and temperature-controlled products across Canada and the United States. LTL shipping allows multiple shipments to share trailer space, making it an efficient and cost-effective option for companies that do not require a full truckload.

LTL Freight for Dry Goods Explained

Dry LTL freight refers to non-temperature-controlled shipments that move at ambient conditions. These shipments are typically palletized, boxed, or unitized and move through carrier terminal networks alongside other compatible freight.

Consolidation, Routing, and Carrier Selection

LTL shipping introduces complexity through shared trailer space and multiple transfer points. GMK manages these variables by selecting LTL carriers with strong terminal networks, reliable handling practices, and consistent on-time performance.

Routing decisions are made with care, balancing transit time, delivery accuracy, and cost efficiency. GMK coordinates pickups, transfers, and final delivery to ensure dry freight flows smoothly from origin to destination.

Temperature-Controlled

LTL Support

In addition to dry freight, GMK supports LTL shipments requiring temperature control. These moves are planned separately based on product sensitivity, dwell time, and carrier capability.

 

By managing both dry and temperature-controlled LTL freight, GMK offers flexibility for businesses shipping mixed product lines or operating across multiple distribution channels.

Visibility, Risk Management,

and Freight Protection

Because LTL freight often passes through multiple terminals, visibility and oversight are essential. GMK maintains shipment visibility and provides proactive communication throughout the transit process.

 

Carrier vetting, insurance verification, and compliance oversight are handled by GMK to reduce exposure and protect your freight. This disciplined management approach supports reliable delivery outcomes and protects customer relationships.
