Freight is anything that is not small parcel. Most freight shipments are over 150 lbs and typically are palletized. Some criterial for freight packaging is:BundlesBoxDrumPailPiecesRollsSlipsheetTotesCrateCartonCoilGaylordFreight- the transportation of goods or cargo. These thing are transported by land (Train, trucks etc.), water, and air!Less-than-truckload (LTL) freight"Less than truckload" (LTL) cargo is the first category of freight shipment, and represents the majority of "freight" shipments and the majority of business-to-business (B2B) shipments. LTL shipments are also often referred to as "motor freight" and the carriers involved are referred to as "motor carriers". LTL shipments range from 100 pounds to about 15,000 pounds, and the majority of times they will be less than 100" wide or 28' long. The average single piece of LTL freight is 1,200 pounds and the size of a standard pallet. Long freight and/or large freight are subject to "extreme length" and "cubic capacity" surcharges. Trailers used in LTL can range from 28' to 53'. The standard for city deliveries is usually 48'. In tight and residential environments the 28' trailer is used the most. The shipments are usually palletized, shrink-wrapped and packaged for a mixed-freight environment. Unlike express or parcel, LTL shippers must provide their own packaging, as LTL carriers do not provide any packaging supplies or assistance. However, crating or other substantial packaging may be required for LTL shipments in circumstances that require this criteria.Dictionary: NOUN:Goods carried by a vessel or vehicle, especially by a commercial carrier; cargo.A burden; a load.Commercial transportation of goods.The charge for transporting goods.
