Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

FTL (Full Truckload) shipments are typically faster than LTL (Less Than Truckload) shipments because carriers do not have to make as many stops to pick up and deliver different shipments. This results in shorter transit times.

Answer: C 
 Since FTL shipments require the entire truck to be filled with cargo from one shipper, there is a higher risk of damage to the products being shipped as they are not consolidated with other shipments.

Answer: D 
 Since FTL shipments are not consolidated with other shipments, there is a higher likelihood that products will need to be repackaged en route to ensure they are properly protected during transportation.

Therefore, the correct answers are A, C, and D.
