Common Questions

Road Freight FAQ

What is the difference between FTL and LTL road freight?

FTL (Full Truck Load) means your cargo fills an entire truck — faster, direct and with no handling alongside other goods. LTL (Less than Truck Load) consolidates your cargo with others — more economical for smaller loads but with slightly longer transit due to consolidation stops.

Does ISLF provide factory-to-port trucking for exporters?

Yes. This is a core service — ISLF coordinates stuffed container transport from your factory to Chennai or Tuticorin port before the shipping line cut-off, or arranges empty container delivery to your factory for stuffing. Fully integrated with our customs clearance.

Does ISLF handle temperature-controlled road freight?

Yes. We arrange refrigerated trucking for pharmaceutical, food, chemical and other temperature-sensitive cargo requiring consistent temperature control throughout inland transit.
