Frequently asked questions

What is ground transportation?

Ground transportation moves cargo by truck between two points on land, by full truckload (FTL), less-than-truckload (LTL), or cross-border trucking, as an alternative or complement to ocean and air freight.

What's the difference between FTL and LTL?

Full truckload (FTL) reserves an entire trailer for one shipment, moving direct from pickup to delivery. Less-than-truckload (LTL) shares trailer space with other shipments, so you pay only for the space your cargo needs.

How long does cross-border trucking take?

Transit time depends on the lane and border crossing point, typically 1 to 5 days within North America. We provide a firm estimate, including customs processing, when you request a quote.

Do you handle customs and border paperwork?

Yes. Our team prepares bills of lading, commercial invoices and border-crossing documentation, and coordinates with customs brokers so your cargo clears without delays.

Can I track my shipment in real time?

Yes. Every ground shipment is visible in your BLS portal from pickup through delivery, with milestone updates and proactive alerts if anything changes.
