Part Loads (LTL/ PTL) Freight

An efficient solution when a full truck is not required

Less Than Truckload (LTL) transportation - is an economical and flexible solution for shipments that do not require a full truck. By consolidating cargo from multiple customers into a single vehicle, LTL transport helps optimize logistics costs, reduce empty mileage, and maintain fast delivery times across Lithuania and throughout Europe.

When is it worth choosing LTL transportation services?

LTL shipping is the ideal option when your cargo:

Weighs up to 2 tons
Occupies up to 10 m³ of space
does not fill the entire truck and does not require a full truckload (FTL).

LTL transport allows you to ship only the amount of goods you need — avoiding extra warehousing costs and improving supply chain efficiency. This makes it an excellent choice for small and medium-sized businesses that value flexibility, reliability, and cost-effective logistics solutions.
