Domestic Trucking Solutions: FTL vs. LTL Freight
To better align with your cargo size, transit urgency, and logistics budget, we provide two core domestic transportation modes:
- FTL (Full Truckload): The premier choice for businesses requiring the exclusive capacity of an entire trailer. FTL ensures faster transit times and direct routing, making it ideal for large volumes or time-sensitive freight.
- LTL (Less-than-Truckload): The most cost-effective alternative for shipments that do not occupy a full trailer. With LTL, you share trailer space with other cargo along established routes, paying exclusively for the exact pallet space your merchandise uses.

Service Terms and OTR Coverage
To ensure complete operational transparency and safety across every haul, our freight services operate under the following commercial guidelines:
- Over-The-Road (OTR) Definition: TEALCA USA is strictly responsible for highway transit from point A to point B. Live loading at the origin and unloading at the final destination are the sole responsibility of the shipper and receiver. Shippers must have the proper infrastructure and machinery (such as forklifts, pallet jacks, or dock levels) ready upon driver arrival.
- Complimentary Cargo Insurance: To safeguard your bottom line, all our inland freight rates include a standard cargo insurance policy covering up to $100,000 USD while in transit.
- High-Value Freight Extension: If the commercial value stated on your commercial invoice exceeds $100,000 USD, we offer supplementary high-value cargo riders to cover the full financial amount of your freight.
- Payment Terms: To avoid administrative holding, the total freight payment must be settled and cleared before the carrier releases the cargo for unloading at the final destination.
Operational Logistics, Rates, and Fees
We calculate commercial trucking rates on an individual basis using standardized industry metrics:
Mileage-Based Pricing
Base freight costs are quoted dynamically based on the practical miles mapped between the loading point and the delivery site.
High-Value Insurance Premiums
For cargo exceeding the standard $100,000 USD protection threshold, an extended insurance premium is applied at a flat 10% rate over the supplemental value.
Detention Fee Rules
To maintain tight transit schedules, our carriers grant a maximum of 2 hours of free time for loading and 2 hours for unloading. If your facility exceeds this window, an hourly Detention Fee will be automatically added to the final invoice.
