What is the difference between FTL and LTL dry van shipping?

FTL (Full Truckload) means your freight fills an entire 48 or 53-foot dry van trailer. LTL (Less-Than-Truckload) means your freight shares space with other shippers' cargo. Loadify offers both options — FTL for larger shipments needing dedicated trailers, and LTL for smaller loads where sharing trailer space reduces cost.

What types of goods can be shipped via dry van?

Dry van trailers are ideal for non-perishable goods that need protection from weather and road conditions. Common commodities include furniture, packaged foods, automotive parts, building materials, manufacturing goods, beer and spirits, and consumer products.

Full Truckload (FTL) is the right choice when your cargo fills an entire 48- or 53-foot trailer — offering faster transit, dedicated equipment, and lower damage risk. Less-Than-Truckload (LTL) makes sense when your shipment doesn't require a full trailer, letting you share space and reduce per-unit shipping costs. Loadify offers both options with access to thousands of pre-screened dry van carriers across Canada and the US.
