About FTL Dry Van Freight
Full truckload (FTL) dry van shipping dedicates an entire enclosed 53 ft trailer to a single shipment. Because your freight is loaded once and sealed until delivery, there's no terminal handling, lower damage risk, and faster transit than LTL. FTL dry van is the workhorse of American freight — it moves everything from palletized consumer goods to packaged industrial products, up to roughly 45,000 lbs. KeepShippin prices FTL dry van per mile with distance tapering (longer hauls earn a lower per-mile rate) and matches your lane to vetted, FMCSA-licensed carriers.
