FTL and LTL Shipping Services Market, by Service Type (Less-than Truckload (LTL) Services and Full Truck Load (FTL) Services), by Truck Type, (Dry Van Truck (Non-perishable Food & Beverages, Clothing Items Plastic & Building Products), Flatbed Truck/Heavy Loads, and Refrigerated Truck (Chilled Fruits & Vegetables and Seafood)), by Shippers Type, (Multiple Shipper and Single Shipper), by Application Type, (Industrial & Manufacturing, Energy & Mining, Food & Beverages, Oil & Gas, Pharmaceuticals & Healthcare, and Others), and by Region (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America and Middle East and Africa) - Size, Share, Outlook, and Opportunity Analysis, 2022 - 2028

Full truck load (FTL) mode refers to a particular freight being shipped from the origin to the destination without halting points, involving operations with low fixed costs and maximum vehicle utilization capacity, as the transportation is programmed to meet a particular demand. As the freight is consolidated along a route distributed in different geographical points but within the same zone, the freight cost in the less than truckload (LTL) mode is generally less than the cost in the FTL mode. As a result, the time between origin and destination is longer in LTL because the truck stops at distribution centers for loading and unloading to consolidate the freight. The LTL mode is typically used to transport small quantities, while the FTL mode is used to transport large quantities over long distances.
Market Dynamics
The increasing demand and supply of transportation services in is expected to propel the market during the forecast period 2022-2028.
The market dynamics in the shipping market can be attributed to a variety of factors. On the demand side, the U.S. economy is expanding, and recent corporate tax reform efforts are likely to encourage companies to invest. The supply-side is also expanding such as the ELD (electronic logging device) limits the number of hours that drivers can work, complicating the industry's driver shortage. Furthermore, with increasing customer demand to expand their fleets, truck manufacturers are facing supply constraints upstream. The growth of ecommerce, combined with customer expectations for order fulfilment in a timely manner, has magnified the impact of these ongoing supply-side issues. According to CMI, a survey of executives from 17 large shippers with extensive FTL experience to get their perspectives on current rate issues, in 2018, all respondents said their contracted rates, which is the interest rate quoted on basis of contract and spot rates, the interest rate quoted for immediate settlement either increased or remained the same, with 65% indicating transportation services rates increased by 5 to 15%. The vast majority of respondents expect contract and spot rates to rise, stating capacity and driver shortages as major reasons.
