When to Use Groupage vs LTL or FTL
Use Groupage when:
- Shipment is 0.4–2 LDM (about 1–5 pallets)

- Regular, recurring shipments to United Kingdom
Consider LTL or FTL instead when:
- Shipment exceeds 2 LDM (LTL: 2–10 LDM)
- Full truck needed (FTL: 10–13.6 LDM)
- Time-critical, direct transit required
- Exclusive vehicle needed (hazmat, temperature)
