Echo can help you save with partial truckload!

In the world of transportation, one size doesn’t fit all. Partial truckload shipments, also known as Volume LTL, are too big for less than truckload (LTL) and too small for full truckload. When you have a shipment between six and 18 pallets or 8,000 and 25,000 pounds, we’re talking partial.

Honestly surprised it's not a higher percentage - a figure to see would be "what percentage of trucks on the road are not being utilized to their maximum potential" . Volume / partial movements as well as your "VIP" custom critical-type 1-3 pallet situations happen far too often especially in consumer packaged goods/consumables
