We move a steady flow of freight from Pennsylvania and New Jersey to Texas, with well over 100 loads arranged on this lane. Unlike our open deck lanes out of Arizona, this one runs almost entirely on dry van, split between LTL and full truckload. Shippers send us skids, pallets and crated freight, and we match each shipment to the right service and a vetted carrier.

Freight We Move on This Lane
Most shipments are palletized or crated goods: skids, pallets and crates that need to stay enclosed and dry for a long haul. That’s why dry van is the default here. Compare trailer options in our Trailer Guide. If your freight is oversized or needs side loading, see our flatbed and open deck freight options.
LTL or Full Truckload
For a few pallets or crates, LTL freight is usually the most cost-effective choice. Accurate class, weight and dimensions help avoid rebills, so check yours with our Freight Class Calculator. When a shipment is large enough, or timing matters more, a dedicated dry van truckload skips terminal handling and usually moves faster.

Should I ship LTL or full truckload?
It depends on size, weight and timing. A few pallets usually make sense as LTL. Larger shipments, or freight that shouldn’t be handled at terminals, often fit better as a dry van truckload. Send us the details and we’ll quote the options.
