TL, or full truckload, uses an entire trailer for one shipper’s freight and is best for larger loads, direct routing, tight schedules, or specialized equipment needs. LTL, or less-than-truckload, combines freight from multiple shippers on one trailer and is typically better for smaller shipments. Little John Transportation Services supports both, including van, flatbed, expedited, and cross-border options.
