Less Than Truckload

Ship smarter.
Not bigger.

Not every shipment needs its own truck. When you're moving pallets instead of trailers, LTL gives you the same Meiborg reliability at a fraction of the cost.

Why LTL

Full service.
Partial load.

The big LTL carriers treat your freight like a number on a conveyor belt. We treat it like a shipment from someone we know — because that's exactly what it is.

Pay for What You Ship

Don't need 45,000 pounds of capacity? Don't pay for it. LTL lets you ship pallets, not trailers — and we build the cost around your actual volume.

Smart Consolidation

We combine compatible shipments headed in the same direction. Your freight moves efficiently alongside loads we're already running — no wasted space, no wasted miles.

Flexible Scheduling

Weekly shipments? Twice a month? On-demand? LTL works on your timeline, not ours. We build pickup schedules that fit your production cycle.

Same Visibility

Just because it's a partial doesn't mean you get partial service. Full GPS tracking, proactive check-calls, and a dispatch team that knows your load by number.

Process

at Meiborg.

01

Request a quote

Tell us the origin, destination, pallet count, weight, and commodity. We quote same-day — usually within hours.

02

We plan the consolidation

Our ops team matches your shipment with compatible freight on existing lanes. Your load gets optimized routing without extra handling.

03

Pickup on your schedule

We pick up when it works for you — not when it works for a terminal schedule. Direct from your dock.

04

Delivery with full visibility

Track your freight in real time. Get proactive updates. Receive POD electronically the moment it's delivered.

Ideal For

When LTL
makes sense.

LTL isn't just “cheap FTL.” It's a different tool for a different job. If you're shipping less than 10 pallets, moving freight regionally, or need flexible scheduling without committing to a full trailer — this is your move.

1–10 pallet shipments
Regional distribution
Inventory replenishment
Sample and prototype shipments
Overflow and surge capacity
Seasonal product runs
Trade show freight
Cross-dock consolidation
