A trucking company that consolidates shipments at a terminal for delivery to the same city is most likely a less-than-truckload (LTL) carrier. LTL carriers combine shipments from various customers at a terminal to maximize the use of their trucks' capacity and to provide efficient transportation services. Truckload (TL) carriers, on the other hand, typically transport larger singular shipments that fill an entire truck, making the consolidation process irrelevant for their operations. Therefore, LTL is the correct option in this context.
LTL trucks rely on terminals and hubs to consolidate shipments. There would be no reason for an FTL to go to a terminal or hub, other then completing paperwork and changing drivers. Answer is C
C. less-than-truckload (LTL) carrier.
Answer should be LTL. They drop at a hub and a TL consolidation truck then takes all the freight from city A to city B to be broken down, reloaded on LTL trucks, and delivered.
I think is LTL because of the Higher utilization
Answer is A as it consolidates to a full truck load
Ans.C. Milk runs can reduce average inventory levels for all parties and the delivery vehicles may have higher utilization if the individual runs were in less-than-truckload quantities but can be consolidated to truckload(s) or fewer trucks are needed in total. If not explain me.
Milk runs are for greater utilization of TL carriers with consolidation of smaller loads that are delivering a greater distance, but still needing a shorter transit time than is given with LTL carriers.
