Questions

LTL shipping, answered

How much does an LTL shipment cost?
An LTL rate is built from your lane, the shipment's freight class, its weight bracket, the current fuel surcharge, and any accessorials (liftgate, residential, inside delivery). Because carrier pricing is negotiated, two shippers moving identical freight often pay very different amounts — which is exactly why comparing carriers on one screen saves money.
Do I need to know my freight class?
No. Enter your pallet dimensions and weight and we estimate your density-based freight class automatically. Some commodities have NMFC-specific classifications — we can verify the final class before booking. If you already know the class or NMFC item, you can enter it and we'll use yours.
Is GetLTLRates free to use?
Yes. Quoting is completely free with no account, credit application, or minimums. To proceed with booking, a quick customer packet needs to be completed — and you're on your way to accessing our full carrier portfolio.
Which carriers do you compare?
National carriers including FedEx Freight, Old Dominion, XPO, Estes, SAIA, R+L Carriers, TForce, ABF, Averitt and Southeastern, plus strong regional carriers on lanes where they win on price or transit time — 50+ in total.
