Frequently Asked Question

Full Truckload (FTL) haulage is a transport method where a single shipment occupies the entire truck, using a dedicated vehicle to move goods directly from origin to destination without load sharing or intermediate handling. This approach allows goods to move in a single journey, maintaining shipment integrity and ensuring predictable delivery timelines.

FTL transport costs range from £1.50 to £5.00 per mile, depending on factors such as distance, vehicle type, load size, fuel prices, and any additional surcharges.

For accurate pricing, contact K Charles Haulage to request a bespoke quote for your full truckload (FTL) haulage. Our team will review your load size, shipment type, route, and delivery requirements to provide a clear, competitive estimate and ensure secure, efficient, and compliant transport across the UK and Europe.

The benefits of full truckload (FTL) haulage are reduced handling, lower risk of damage, and faster transit since goods are not transferred between vehicles. It also provides better delivery control, consistent transit times, and improved security for high-value or sensitive shipments. In addition, FTL ensures direct transport with no load sharing, allows full truck capacity utilisation, and supports more predictable scheduling for time-critical deliveries.

Common signs that a business needs better FTL haulage service include delivery delays, damaged goods, poor visibility, and inconsistent transit times. They indicate the current haulage setup is not meeting delivery performance or operational requirements, which can lead to supply chain disruption and reduced operational efficiency.

FTL uses a dedicated vehicle for a single shipment with direct delivery, whereas LTL combines multiple shipments in one truck, resulting in shared space, more handling, and longer transit times. FTL also offers faster delivery and lower risk, while LTL is better suited for smaller shipments with flexible delivery schedules.
