It’s Easier Than You Think to Ship a Large Item

UPS, FedEx and other express carriers only accept packages up to 150 pounds. For shipments over 150 pounds, it’s easier and cheaper to ship LTL (less than truckload). You don’t have to own a large company, or own a company at all to utilize LTL shipping. Whether you are selling your dining room suit, or own a furniture store, shipping LTL can help anyone. The carriers that provide these services are networked nationwide. Unless you ship a large volume on a regular basis, you will receive the list price with no discounts. One way to avoid this is to go through a freight broker. A freight broker negotiates discounts that you wouldn’t other wise receive with the carrier, while also taking the head ache out of shipping. A freight broker takes care of everything from scheduling the pickup to confirming delivery.
