What is Partial Load Transportation: Basic Concepts
Partial load transportation is a method of transporting goods where the cargo of a truck is shared by multiple senders. In short, it allows customers whose goods are too heavy to fill a truck or vehicle to transport their goods alongside those of other customers. In this method, a portion of the vehicle's capacity is filled with your goods, while the remainder is filled with the goods of other customers. Partial load transportation is very common and economical in intercity transport, especially for shipments from Ankara to major cities like Istanbul, Izmir, and Antalya.
Partial load transportation reduces costs while maintaining service quality. If you were to rent a full vehicle, you would have to pay for the available space. With a partial rental system, you only pay for the space you use.
Partial vs. Full Truckload Transportation: What's the Difference?
Full Vehicle (Direct) Transportation
In full truckload shipping, the vehicle is completely filled with your belongings and carries only your shipment. This method is preferred in the following situations:
- In case of carrying too many items
- When delicate or valuable items (antiques, pianos, safes) need to be transported
- When transportation needs to be fast and direct
- If no intermediate stop is desired and direct delivery is requested
Although full truckload transport is more expensive, it ensures your goods don't come into contact with other cargo and guarantees fast delivery.
Partial Load Transportation
In partial load transportation, the vehicle is shared among the goods of different customers. This method:
- It is more economical and reduces costs.
- Ideal for medium-level item counts.
- Multiple deliveries are made along the designated route.
- Delivery time may be slightly longer than for a full vehicle.
- Planning is easy (weekly fixed routes).
