How Ground Freight Shipping Works

Shipping via ground freight generally takes place in three phases:

Collection– First, the shipment is collected from the shipper’s loading site. This could be a business or residence.

Delivery to the service provider/third-party warehouse– The shipment is then delivered to a service provider or third-party warehouse. This is where the shipment will be sorted and combined with other loads whose destination is the same.

Sorting and delivery– Shipments are continuously sorted and combined with other shipments going to the same location. This process repeats until the shipment reaches its final destination.
