The Lighthouse Logistics team partners with many independent contractors and carriers to create a reliable, trustworthy, and efficient freight shipping network for clients.
LTL Shipping
Less-than-truckload freight deliveries travel domestically. This shipping option is ideal for companies with a smaller shipment, as the shipping method combines multiple loads (or shipments) on one truck or trailer. Multiple companies share the cost of the carrier, making LTL an affordable shipping option.
FTL Shipping
Full truckload shipping utilizes a standard semi for one client’s shipment to navigate products and goods across the U.S. FTL hauls large amounts of goods and products.
Flatbed
A flatbed trailer ships equipment and large items that need the flexibility of being able to load from the side of the trailer. Lighthouse works with numerous trucking companies to deliver this shipping service to clients.
Drayage
Lighthouse partners with best-in-class drayage carriers when companies need containers imported or exported. Typically, trucks receive these large shipments via coastal ports & inland railyards.
Expedited Shipping
Some shipments need to arrive the same day or by the next business day. Expedited shipping ensures the fastest delivery of products and goods, mitigating supply chain bottlenecks and keeping deliverables on target.
