Full Truck Load Transportation Services

Full Truck load Services In India
To understand the nuances of Full Truck Load Transportation, we first need to comprehend what it is. The defining characteristic of FTL transportation is that it is a carrier, carrying goods for a sole customer. It is profitable to the customer because it is cheaper and faster than a shipping service. Containers, once loaded, stop only at delivery locations. There are no chances of mix ups because of the single customer policy. Delivery can be made to multiple stops if you are a retail chain owner. It is ideal for large loads with special provisions for-loading and un-loading. These features make FTL a perfect fit for the transportation of heavy goods in countries like India, Bhutan and Nepal. Bulk Cargo Transportation, is the transport of goods in large quantities, where the vehicle itself acts as a container. The measurement of the cargo distinguishes between general cargo and bulk cargo. Bulk cargo can be of two kinds- solid and liquid. Both of these will require a different kind of bulk cargo transport as well as handling. Liquid Bulk Cargo like oil, gas, water etc., are preferably transported by land over water. This is because of the efficiency of FTL Transportation.
We even recommend and encourage our clients to opt for FTL services because of its better efficiency and timely delivery.

It could even move cross borders to countries like Nepal and Bhutan.
• The type of truck that is to be used should also be carefully considered. Since we already know that the vehicle doubles as a container, it is a choice of paramount importance.
• The standard vessel is a 20-foot container of 10 pallets each of 48″X40″ or 48 units. Transportation of a single consignment is the sole purpose of an entire container.
