What is ground freight?

Ground freight involves transporting goods by truck without using containers. It's essential for supply chains worldwide, helping businesses move products efficiently. Both local and international sellers rely on ground freight to connect different segments of distribution networks.

Typically, this is done through Full Truckload (FTL) or Less-than-Truckload (LTL) services. FTL is used when shipping large quantities that fill an entire truck, while LTL is for smaller shipments sharing space with other goods. For more information on the difference, read the article here.
