What does Linehaul mean in logistics?
Short answer
The long-distance, trunk portion of a movement between cities or hubs, as distinct from local pickup and delivery.
In Indian PTL networks, linehaul trucks run between hubs on fixed schedules; in FTL the whole trip is effectively linehaul. Ask our desk how this applies to your consignment.
