First Time Shippers Guide to LTL Freight Shipping: Part Three

Welcome to Part Three in our three part series for new and first-time shippers.

Part Three: Transit and Delivery

Once your shipment has been picked up, it will be assigned a PRO number for tracking. This number will allow you to check the status and location of your shipment so that you can prepare for its arrival.

If you’re shipping to a residential location, the destination terminal will often call to set a time for delivery and to make sure someone will be present. That’s why it’s especially important to provide an accurate phone number and contact name for the destination.

Thanks for tuning in to our three-part series. I hope you’ve found this information useful, and I hope it’s shown you just how easy it is to ship freight with a third party provider, even if you only need to ship something once.
