Reliable Full Truckload Shipping Solutions Tailored to Your Needs
With our extensive network of Full Truckload (FTL) carriers, Latin American Cargo provides reliable, cost-effective trucking solutions for commercial cargo moving across Mexico, the United States, and Canada.
Why Choose Full Truckload (FTL) Shipping?
FTL is the ideal choice when your shipment:
Fills a full trailer (48’ or 53’): For cargo that occupies most or all of the trailer space, FTL is your best or only option.
Requires fast delivery: FTL offers direct transportation with no stops or transfers, ensuring faster transit times.
Demands greater safety and handling control: Since cargo is only handled during loading and unloading, the risk of damage or loss is significantly reduced.
Our Full Truckload Services & Capabilities
FTL to and from Mexico
Shipping FTL cargo across the US-Mexico border can be complex without the right partner. Mismanagement during the cross-border stretch can lead to costly delays. With over 25 years of experience in cross-border logistics, LAC ensures seamless coordination at every stage of your shipment—minimizing risks and maximizing reliability.
Direct Service vs. Transloading Options
We offer two flexible FTL solutions depending on your cargo and handling preferences:
Direct Service (No Transloading): Your cargo remains in the same trailer from origin to destination. This method reduces handling and is ideal for delicate or high-value goods.
Service with Transloading: Cargo is transferred from a Canadian or US trailer to a Mexican carrier at the border. This option allows for greater pickup flexibility and broader carrier availability.
Secure, Certified & Transparent Transport
At LAC, we work with a trusted network of professional FTL carriers across Mexico, the U.S., and Canada. Many of our partners are C-TPAT certified and equipped with GPS tracking systems to enhance security and monitoring.
If your shipment requires specific compliance such as C-TPAT certification or real-time GPS tracking, we can arrange those capabilities upon request—ensuring that your cargo moves under the conditions your business demands.

For temperature-sensitive goods such as:
Perishables (fruits, vegetables)

What is the difference between FTL and LTL shipping?
FTL (Full Truckload) is used when a shipment occupies an entire truck, while LTL (Less than Truckload) combines multiple shipments from different customers in one truck.
How fast is FTL trucking?
FTL is faster than LTL since it travels direct from origin to destination without stops. For example, a full truckload shipment from Chicago to Monterrey, Mexico typically takes 2 to 3 days, depending on border clearance.
Is transloading safe for my cargo?
Yes. While it involves an extra handling step, we coordinate the process carefully and only work with trusted carriers to minimize risk.
Do you offer refrigerated FTL across all three countries?
Yes, we offer temperature-controlled FTL services across Mexico, the US, and Canada through our certified reefer carriers.
Can I track my FTL shipment in real-time?
Absolutely. Many of our carriers are equipped with GPS tracking systems, and we provide real-time updates to keep you informed.
What kind of goods can I ship via FTL?
FTL is suitable for a wide range of cargo, including dry goods, perishables, machinery, electronics, medical supplies, and more.
Do you handle cross-border customs documentation?
While we do not act as a customs broker, we coordinate closely with brokers and clients to ensure the documentation process is seamless.
