Freight transport by road is the process of moving goods and materials by truck in the certain time. This can include everything from small vans to large trucks, even oversize cargo and can involve shipments that are local, regional, national, or international in scope. At Savis logistics, we have the experience and expertise to handle all types of road freight shipments, no matter how big or small.

There are two main types of road freight transport: full truckload (FTL) and less than truckload (LTL). FTL involves shipping large quantities of goods in a single truck, while LTL shipments are made up of smaller quantities that are consolidated into a single shipment by the logistics provider. Both FTL and LTL services may include additional services such as cross-docking, global distribution, or specialized handling for fragile or high-value items.

Groupage transport is a type of LTL service in which multiple small shipments are consolidated into a single larger shipment. This can be an efficient and cost-effective way to move smaller quantities of goods, as it allows businesses to share the cost of shipping with other shippers.

Express delivery is a type of FTL service that guarantees shipment of goods within a specific time frame. This can be an important service for businesses that need to ensure timely delivery of their products, especially if they are perishable or time-sensitive.

GOversize/heavy haul is a type of FTL service that involves shipping large or heavy items that may require special handling or equipment. This can include items like machinery, construction materials, or vehicles.

Other types of road cargo worth mentioning are dangerous goods, multimodal transport, and temperature-controlled shipments. In addition to our road freight services, Savis logistics also offers a range of other transportation and logistics solutions, including air freight, sea freight, warehousing, and distribution. We also offer value-added services such as packaging, labeling, and assembly to help you get your products to market quickly and efficiently.
