Choosing the right flatbed shipping option can make a huge difference for your business – impacting costs, delivery times, and product safety.

For Ontario companies moving heavy, oversized, or construction-grade materials, the decision usually comes down to:

• Flatbed LTL (Less-Than-Truckload) ✅
• Flatbed FTL (Full Truckload) ✅

At Maple Global Transport, we help businesses across Ontario pick the perfect flatbed solution to match their freight type, volume, and delivery requirements. Let’s break it down.

LTL = Less-Than-Truckload. Multiple customers share trailer space, so your shipment takes only part of the flatbed deck. This is cost-effective for smaller or partial loads.

Ideal For:

• Partial shipments
• Recurring deliveries
• Smaller volume orders
• Cost-conscious businesses

Perfect Industries:
🧱 Building Material Suppliers — lumber, drywall, steel studs
🏗️ Construction Companies — phased project deliveries
🔩 Steel & Metal Suppliers — palletized products
🏭 Manufacturing Facilities — bundled or palletized goods

Common LTL Freight:

• Lumber bundles
• Drywall sheets
• Steel studs & framing materials
• Palletized construction materials

FTL = Full Truckload. Your shipment fills the entire trailer, perfect for large, heavy, oversized, or urgent freight.

Ideal For:

• High-volume or oversized shipments
• Time-sensitive deliveries
• Direct yard-to-site or plant-to-site deliveries
• Projects with strict deadlines

Industries That Rely on FTL:
🏗️ Large Construction Projects
⚙️ Industrial & Manufacturing Companies
🔌 Energy, Power & Utility Sectors
🛠️ Drilling, Geothermal & Infrastructure Projects

Common FTL Freight:

• Structural steel
• Long-length materials
• Heavy machinery & equipment
• Industrial components

The right choice depends on:

• Freight size & weight
• Delivery urgency
• Shipment frequency
• Budget considerations
• Job site or facility requirements

Many Ontario businesses use both LTL and FTL, depending on project needs – and that’s why having the right flatbed partner matters.
