When a cargo owner rents a container, the whole of a container, the freight is called FTL.
Thus, the whole container is in the cargo owner’s hand. In this freight, the large cargos that needs the full capacity of a container are transported.
In full truckload, the person who has rented the whole container has to pay the container cost, whereas in less- than- truckload (LTL) the transport cost is shared among the persons who have rented a container and shared it.
• Transporting large quantities (10 pallets or more to one destination);
• Transporting fragile or high-risk cargos (they might not require the whole capacity of a container but the owner wants to be on the safe side)
• A fast transporting is required (FTL is a fast transportation because it carries only one cargo to its destination and it needs one stop: the destination).
