Our Core Land Freight Services
We design road transport in a way that match your cargo type and urgency.
1. FTL – Full Truck Load Service
When your shipment can fill (or almost fill) a truck, FTL land freight is usually the best option.
Direct, point-to-point movement
Faster transit, minimal handling
Ideal for time-critical and high-value cargo
Lower damage risk
Best for: manufacturers, bulk shipments, seasonal peaks, project cargo.
2. LTL – Less Than Truck Load Service
If your cargo doesn’t fill a full truck, our LTL land freight service lets you share space and cost.
Pay only for the space you use
Consolidation of multiple small shipments
Regular departures on key routes
Perfect for SMEs and online sellers
Best for: e-commerce, distributors, smaller and frequent shipments.
3. Domestic & Cross-Border Road Transport
Whether you ship within the country or across borders, Movers BS builds routes that work:
Domestic distribution between cities and industrial zones
Cross-border movement with customs coordination
Multimodal options (road + sea / road + air) if needed
We focus on route planning, so your land cargo moves with fewer stops and less delay.
4. Container & Trailer Haulage
For containers and heavy cargo, we provide:
20 ft / 40 ft container haulage
Flatbed trailers for OOG (oversized) cargo
Low bed and high bed trailers for machinery
Reefer trucks for temperature-controlled goods
This way, if you already use sea freight, our land freight closes the gap between port and your warehouse.
Service Coverage & Typical Transit Times
Below is a sample illustration of how our land freight transit times might look. These are example figures, actual times depend on distance, traffic, and border conditions.
| Route Type | Distance Range (km) | Typical Transit Time | Mode |
|---|---|---|---|
| Intra-city / Local Delivery | 0 – 80 km | Same day | Van / Small Truck |
| Regional (City to City) | 80 – 400 km | 1 – 2 days | Medium Truck |
| Long Haul Domestic | 400 – 1200 km | 2 – 4 days | Heavy Truck (FTL) |
| Cross-Border (Neighbouring Country) | 500 – 1500 km | 3 – 7 days | FTL / Consolidated |
We always share the ETA before dispatch, and we keep you updated if there is any unusual delay on the route.
Land Freight Cost & Sample Price Structure
We try to keep land freight pricing simple and transparent. Key cost factors usually include:
Distance (km)
Shipment weight / volume
Type of vehicle (van, 6-wheeler, 10-wheeler, trailer, etc.)
Special requirements (reefer, tail lift, express delivery, extra manpower)
Here is a sample cost table for reference (illustrative only, not final quotation):
| Service Type | Capacity (Approx.) | Typical Use Case | Approx. Rate* |
|---|---|---|---|
| Local Van Delivery | Up to 1 ton | Parcels, cartons, samples | From $0.50/km |
| 6-Wheel Truck (LTL / FTL) | 3–5 tons | Pallets, boxes, general cargo | From $0.75/km |
| 10-Wheel Truck (FTL) | 8–12 tons | Bulk goods, industrial cargo | From $1.10/km |
| Trailer / Container Haulage | 20–28 tons | Containers, project cargo | From $1.60/km |
*These figures are indicative only to show structure. Actual land freight rates from Movers BS depend on your exact route, volume, and requirements.
Simple Example Cost Calculation (Indicative)
Let’s say you want to move 6 pallets (3 tons) over 350 km on an LTL basis:
Base per-km rate (LTL, 6-wheel truck): $0.80/km
Distance: 350 km
Estimated transport cost = 350 × 0.80 = $280
If you choose FTL for the same route (for faster transit and dedicated vehicle), the rate per km may be slightly higher, but you gain speed and lower handling.
For accurate numbers, we always provide a custom quotation based on your shipment details.

Retail & FMCG – time-sensitive deliveries to stores and distribution centers

Land Freight vs Air & Sea – Where It Fits
Each mode has its role, and land freight usually sits in the middle:
Faster than sea freight on many regional routes
Cheaper than air freight, especially for heavier shipments
Better for short- to medium-distance routes and inland points
Perfect for door-to-door distribution and flexible pickups
That’s why many smart shippers combine land, sea, and air freight to reach the right balance of cost and speed. Movers BS can help you plan that mix.

FAQs – Land Freight Service
Land freight service means moving goods by road or rail, usually using trucks, trailers, or vans. It covers pickup from origin, transport over highways, and final delivery to the receiver.
We handle general cargo, pallets, cartons, machinery, consumer goods, retail stock, e-commerce parcels, and certain temperature-sensitive goods (with reefer options). Dangerous goods may require special review and approval.
Land freight cost is usually based on distance, weight/volume, vehicle type, service type (FTL or LTL), and any special handling. Tolls, permits, or border charges might be added when applicable.
FTL (Full Truck Load): one customer uses the whole truck. Faster and less handling.
LTL (Less Than Truck Load): your cargo shares space with other shipments, and cost is split.
Generally, yes. For medium and heavy shipments, land freight is much cheaper than air, but slower. It’s ideal when you don’t need express delivery in hours.
Movers BS provides tracking updates and status notifications via our operations team. You get regular information from pickup to delivery, and you can always call or mail our dispatch desk.
We usually need: pickup and delivery addresses, cargo description, number of pieces, total weight, dimensions, preferred date, and any special requirements (like reefer, tail lift, express).
For standard shipments, booking 24–48 hours in advance is usually enough. However, for peak seasons, big projects or special vehicles, earlier booking is recommended.
On selected lanes and within certain distance limits, Movers BS can arrange same-day or express land freight using dedicated vehicles, subject to availability and cut-off times.
Yes, we manage cross-border land freight with support for basic customs and transit documentation, depending on the route. We coordinate with our partners to reduce border delays as much as possible.
Basic carrier liability may apply, but it is often limited. For peace of mind, we recommend separate cargo insurance, which we can assist you with on request.
Cargo should be properly packed for road movement: strong cartons, pallets, shrink wrap, or crates, depending on the item. Good packaging reduces damage risk during loading, unloading, and transit.
Yes, but fragile items must be clearly labeled and well packaged. Please inform our team at booking so we can arrange suitable handling and, when possible, better placement in the truck.
On key lanes, we can offer scheduled departures and fixed-day services. For high-volume customers, Movers BS can design a fixed weekly or daily land freight schedule.
After successful delivery, we capture POD, which may include signature, stamp, or electronic confirmation. You can receive it by mail or through your agreed communication channel.
Sometimes it’s possible, but it depends on where the truck is already and what rules apply. You should contact our team immediately if you need to change the delivery point, extra charges may apply.
If traffic, weather, or border issues cause a delay, we inform you as soon as we have reliable information and share a revised ETA. Our operations team keeps an eye on high-risk routes.
Yes, Movers BS can combine warehousing and distribution with land freight service, so you can store goods and dispatch them to multiple locations as per your schedule.
Definitely. Many customers use land + sea or land + air solutions. We can pick up from your site, move to port or airport, and then deliver at destination via road again.
Just reach out to Movers BS with your shipment details. Our team will check the route, choose the right truck, and send you a clear land freight quotation. Once you confirm, we schedule pickup and keep you informed till delivery.
