Drop Trailer
A drop trailer is a truck trailer that the driver leaves (or “drops”) at a shipper's facility, warehouse, or specific location for unloading or loading at the receiver's convenience. Either the original driver or another driver returns to pick up the trailer at a pre-arranged time.
Veltri Logistics offers drop trailer services to our customers who ship consistent volume.
The benefits of our drop trailer services include:
-
Better service levels
-
Convenience and flexibility
-
Possible low shipping costs
However, there are also specific times that a drop trailer service is not beneficial. The professional team at Veltri Logistics helps guide you through your best options for each unique shipping transaction.
Full Truckload Freight (FTL)
A full truckload freight or FTL benefits our customers who have large shipments to fill an entire semi-trailer. Typically an entire truckload starts at one origin and is delivered to a specific location or client.
Some features and benefits of FTL freight include:
-
Offers faster shipping than LTL
-
Suitable for high-risk or delicate loads
-
Ideal for large shipments
-
Cost-effective for larger shipments
Veltri Logistics streamlines customized solutions to help make your complex shipping transactions more efficient.
Less-than-Truckload (LTL)
A less-than-truckload or LTL benefits our customers who have smaller shipments that do not fill an entire semi-trailer. Typically a LTL is shipped with multiple businesses parcels. Less-than-truckloads routing is usually not directly to the receiver and can take longer for your shipment to be delivered.
Some features and benefits of LTL freight include:
-
Suitable for businesses with flexible delivery dates and times
-
Ideal for smaller shipments
Veltri Logistics streamlines customized solutions to help make your complex shipping transactions more efficient. Reach out for more information today!
Flatbed Hauls
A flatbed trailer is a typical open deck equipment that has no roof nor sides. Although it can be tarped, it is mainly used for transporting heavy and indelicate goods such as machinery, building supplies, or raw materials. Flatbed trailers vary in sizes such as 48', 53' and hotshot trailers anywhere from 10' to 40'.
Common examples of flatbed hauls:
-
Lumber / plywood / hay
-
Forklifts / auto-parts
-
Steel / aluminum / concrete
-
Solar panels
Worried about securing your product? No problem, our experts can help by walking you through different options for straps, chains, binders or even tarps to send your freight safely to its destination.
Oversized Loads
Any shipment that exceeds the standard legal size or weight limits is considered an oversized load. The maximum dimensions for a load can vary depending on location, but typically, a load is considered oversized if it exceeds 8.5 feet in width, 13.5 feet in height, or 80,000 pounds in weight. With specialized trailers like lowboys, removeable goosenecks (RGNs), or step decks, Veltri Logistics will ensure you are never overpaying for over-dimensional shipping.
Examples of oversized hauls:
-
Custom construction machinery
-
Heavy equipment such as excavators, dozers and backhoes
-
Pre-built homes
-
Cranes, utility service trucks, and yard dogs
-
Trencher drainage machines
If you need highway deliveries, cross-country super-loads, or simply want to know if your freight qualifies as overweight we're here to help.

Refrigerated (Reefer)
Reefer trailers operate with a built-in refrigeration system. Refrigerated trucking is essential for shipping perishable cargo like meat, frozen foods, vegetables, fruits, and pharmaceuticals.
The experts at Veltri Logistics understand the detailed handling requirements of maintaining the quality of your temperature controlled freight.
Our best practices for refrigerated trucking include:
-
Understand the freight and shipping needs
-
Schedule for quick loading
-

-

Drayage
Drayage is the transportation of shipping containers usually coming or going to/from a port, intermodal terminal, or an off-port warehouse. Drayage is an integral part of today’s supply chain needs as international trade continues to develop.
Whether you are importing or exporting you can rest assured your goods are on time, demurrage charges are avoided, and containers are brought back empty.
Typical routes for drayage from:
-
Port-to-port
-
Door-to-port / port-to-door
-
Intermodal terminal-to-door
Veltri Logistics offers complete port work so you can focus on the more important details of your business.
