What do FTL and LTL mean?

FTL is an abbreviation for the phrase “FULL TRUCKLOAD” and refers to the transports where the shipment covers the full capacity of the truck load. The weight of the load cannot exceed 25 tonnes. In a case of FTL delivery times are shorter and the transfer is carried out directly, without stops in-between. On the other hand,
LTL stands for “LESS THAN TRUCKLOAD”. Those are smaller shipments that take over just part of the truck load and are combined with other shipments. Their delivery times are longer, because of the interim stops needed for all shipments to be delivered.
