Two solutions for every cargo volume

With more than 40 years in the market, we adapt ground freight to the size of your shipment and your company's budget.

Full Truck

FTL — Full Truck Load

The solution for companies that need a truck's full capacity. Your cargo travels exclusively, with no intermediate stops and the shortest possible transit time. Ideal for large volumes, importers, distributors and urgent moves of complete inventory.

Consolidated Freight

LTL — Less Than Truck Load

The most cost-effective option for shipments that don't fill a full truck. You pay only for the space your cargo occupies on shared routes, with freight calculated by mileage and actual volume. Ideal for SMBs and growing businesses moving pallets or partial cargo.

Over The Road (OTR): how the service works

Required

What your freight includes

Full transparency on every ground freight operation.

Cargo transit insurance with coverage up to $100,000 USD included in all rates, at no extra cost from day one.

Additional policies available: if the declared invoice value exceeds $100,000 USD, add coverage for the full value with a 10% premium on the excess.

Freight quoted by the exact mileage between the pickup and drop-off points, with no rounding or estimates, for both FTL and LTL.

Prepare the pickup and drop-off points in advance: the OTR service does not include loading or unloading. The carrier allows 2 hours at each point before the additional time charge (Detention Fee) applies. Full freight payment must be completed before unloading begins.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about ground freight

FTL (Full Truck Load) means you book a truck's full capacity exclusively for your cargo. It is the fastest and safest option, ideal for large volumes. LTL (Less Than Truck Load) is consolidated freight: you share the truck space with other clients and pay only for the space your cargo occupies. It is the most economical option for partial shipments.
Yes. All our ground freight rates include a cargo transit insurance policy with coverage up to $100,000 USD, at no extra cost. If your cargo's declared value exceeds that figure, you can add an additional policy. The extended insurance premium is 10% of the excess value.
No. The service we offer is OTR (Over The Road), which means we handle exclusively the road transport of the cargo. Loading at the origin point and unloading at the final destination are the client's responsibility, who must have the necessary personnel and equipment: forklifts, stackers or any other required machinery.
The Detention Fee is a charge for additional waiting time. The carrier is allotted a maximum of 2 hours for both loading at origin and unloading at destination. If either operation exceeds that time, an additional charge applies proportional to the extra time used. To avoid it, make sure everything is ready before the carrier arrives.
The cost is calculated on a personalized basis based on several factors: the exact mileage between the pickup and drop-off points, the chosen mode (FTL or LTL), the type and volume of the cargo, and the operation date. We do not use fixed rates — each quote is built to measure to reflect the exact conditions of your shipment.
Full payment of the booked freight must be completed before proceeding to unload the cargo at the final destination. This condition applies to all FTL and LTL operations without exception. Our team will indicate the available payment methods when confirming the operation.
TEALCA USA operates in the 48 contiguous states of the continental United States. We have presence and logistics connections in the main distribution hubs: Miami (FL), Houston (TX), Los Angeles (CA), New York (NY), Chicago (IL), Atlanta (GA) and more.
