Road transport
Road transport is the most common method of ground transportation of goods. In this way, trailers and trucks transport goods in short or long distances and actually connect distribution centers, warehouses, manufacturers and sellers. Regardless of what mode of transportation you use to move goods internationally, it is generally necessary to use road transportation for part of the route.

Types of road transport
In the road transportation that is done by trucks or trucks, there are two models of full truckload transportation (FTL) and groupage transportation (LTL) . In the following, we introduce more of these two methods.
What is full truckload transportation?
In full truck or FTL (full truckload) transportation, the entire space and capacity of a truck is considered for a customer’s load. In fact, the entire capacity of a truck is filled with the load of one customer. Since the truck load has only one origin and destination and is transferred directly from the origin to the destination, this method of road transportation will be economical. Full truckload or FTL shipping requires booking a full truckload and is therefore slightly more expensive than LTL shipping.
What is groupage freight?
Groupage cargo or LTL (less-than-truckload) is said to be a situation where the amount of cargo is greater than the maximum capacity of the truck or trailer. Therefore, instead of receiving the cargo from one company, the trailer will receive it from different companies and there will be different goods from different customers in the trailer.
