What is Flock Freight?

Enhance your shipping efficiency while reducing the environmental impact of your freight by adopting shared truckload (STL) services. This transition can boost your on-time delivery rates, drastically lower the chances of damage, and completely negate the carbon emissions associated with your freight transport. Shipments between 8 to 44 linear feet are effectively moved in direct, hubless shared truckloads, making STL the perfect solution for freight that exceeds less-than-truckload (LTL) limits without requiring a full truck. With shipments remaining on the same vehicle from pickup to delivery, STL is astonishingly safer—120 times more so—compared to traditional hub-and-spoke LTL methods. By utilizing shared truckload, you gain the benefits of full truckload (TL) service at a more economical rate, paying only for the space you actually occupy while sharing trailer capacity with other shippers. Accelerate your revenue cycle by sending out freight without delay; STL provides faster transit times than LTL and consolidator networks. Our reliable STL service offers an ideal solution for medium-sized freight, removing arbitrary linear-foot limitations and ensuring that shipments are efficiently routed through an advanced technological framework. By choosing STL, you are not only streamlining your operations but also playing a vital role in fostering a more eco-friendly shipping environment, thereby promoting sustainable practices within the industry. In doing so, you contribute to a collective effort toward reducing the transportation sector's overall environmental footprint.
