Cost-Effective Consolidated Part Truck Load (PTL) Logistics
For medium-volume shipments, commercial parcels, and smaller industrial dispatches, booking an entire FTL commercial vehicle is not cost-effective. At ARL Logistics, we manage professional Part Truck Load (PTL) and LTL cargo services. We consolidate multiple commercial shipments traveling along the same highway route, allowing you to pay solely for the exact volumetric space or payload weight your cargo occupies.
We operate a nationwide network of hubs to consolidate and coordinate shipments. Our logistics planners utilize dynamic routing systems to optimize transport paths, minimize fuel costs, and maintain delivery schedules. We provide seamless integration with your corporate ERP systems to enable real-time inventory visibility and continuous tracking updates.
Standard PTL Weight & Volume Slabs
To help you select the ideal cargo class for your consolidated shipment, we outline our standard billing slabs below:
| Cargo Class | Minimum Billing Weight | Ideal Cargo Type | Transit Priority |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard LTL Parcels | 100 - 500 Kgs | Commercial cartons, retail goods, dynamic boxes | Scheduled hub transit |
| Heavy PTL Consignments | 500 - 2,000 Kgs | Industrial machinery parts, electrical panels, paint drums | Scheduled hub transit |
| Bulk PTL Shipments | 2,000+ Kgs | FMCG products, chemical raw materials, heavy raw tools | Express hub transit |
| Volumetric Bulky Items | Custom Volumetric Calculation | Furniture sets, oversized packaging materials, plastic pipes | Scheduled hub transit |
Our 5-Step Consolidated PTL Process
ARL Logistics manages PTL shipments with complete safety, precise scheduling, and real-time coordination:
Step 1: Booking & Volumetric Calculation
You book your cargo slot through our helpline. We weigh your shipment, calculate the volumetric metrics, and determine the exact billing slab.
Step 2: Pickup & Hub Consolidation
We collect your goods from your pickup point using local mini-trucks, transport them to our central consolidation hub, and group them with other shipments.
Step 3: Systematic Loading & Securing
Our loading crew distributes weight evenly, secures the cargo with heavy locking straps, and applies weather-proof seals.
Step 4: Weatherproof GPS-Tracked Highway Transit
The locked container vehicle is driven by long-haul highway operators along optimized routes. Customers receive continuous live status updates via our central coordinates network desk.
Step 5: Hub Segregation & Door Delivery
At the delivery destination hub, we segregate your shipment, load it onto local mini-trucks, and complete the door delivery and collect the signed Proof of Delivery (POD) document.
