Services and pricing · Part load or full truck

What is the difference between part truckload and full truckload?

Short answer

Part truckload (PTL) shares a truck with other shippers and is charged by weight, while full truckload (FTL) books the whole vehicle for one shipper.

In FY2025-26 our booking register shows 4,03,630 part-load and 1,01,587 full-truckload consignments. PTL suits small lots that move through hubs. FTL suits loads that fill most of a truck and go straight from pickup to drop. Send weight and pincodes on WhatsApp and our desk recommends one.
