Our full truckload shipping (FTL) services are best for large or high-risk shipments, even if your delicate shipment doesn’t fill an entire truck. FTL shipping ensures no other shipments are stowed in the truck besides yours, offering extra safety and security.
You don’t pay shipment transfers, and it’s faster and more efficient than less than truckload shipping (LTL) since full truckload shipments only travel to one destination. This allows for effective freight tracking, as transport management systems aren’t affected by stops along the way to deliver other customers’ freight.
Our truckload carriers offer several transportation options suited to provide FTL shipping for your oversized loads, climate-sensitive and delicate commodities.
As a leading heavy haul trucking company, we are experienced in transporting heavy loads. Our multi-axle and dual lane trailers are designed for oversize freight shipping. We also provide dolly systems and side kits to make the job easier. Our heavy haul truckload equipment includes:
Ideal for oversized or unwieldy cargo, flatbeds can be an efficient and affordable way to transport a heavy load.
With two deck levels, these flatbed trailers are designed to carry long or tall freight exceeding legal height limits.
Tall, wide, and with two drops in deck height, lowboys are utilized to carry oversize and heavy machinery.
Our heavy-duty and cost-effective semi-trucks require fewer trips for hauling large and hefty loads.
Equipped with a soft roof and sides supported by a removable frame, these flatbed trailers protect cargo during transport.
Used to transport a broad range of oversized loads like construction equipment, versatile double drops come with a fixed or RGN neck.
Our qualified team specializes in providing heavy haul, oversize, expedited, refrigerated, hazmat, and power-only truckload freight solutions. We assist with the smooth running of supply chains across numerous industries like construction, agricultural, pharmaceutical, mining, retail, energy, transportation, and more.

Man, was I in a bind last month. I am a sales person for a packaged food company and I had to receive about 150 cases of product, divvy it all up, and then ship it out to 70 different locations. I work from home and there was no way I was going to run this operation out of my 1 bedroom apartment. I was in a panic until I looked up some information and called Cowtown Express. They were so nice and agreed to receive the product, divide it up, and ship it out for me. Even though this kind of job is a little different than what they normally do, they were happy to figure out a way to get it done for me. Their labor costs were very reasonable and the whole thing got done with a lot less stress and hassle than I had expected.
We have used Cowtown Express several times to move pallets between our warehouses in Dallas and Fort Worth. They have always delivered on-time and as expected. We are very pleased and wholeheartedly recommend their services.
Cowtown is a fantastic company in every angel. From the owners to the mechanics and everyone in between ! Our drivers put in 110% to the company and our customers and we get back every bit of that !!

Full truckload (FTL) shipping is a type of shipping mode whereby a truck carries one dedicated shipment. In other words, the journey is reserved for one shipment only. Cargo that requires climate control, flatbeds or other special considerations like hazmat transportation is best suited for full truckloads.
Less-than-truckload freight does not fill an entire truck, leaving space for other shipments. These typically range from 100 to 5,000 pounds. FTL shipments will fill most, if not all, of an entire truck and have an average weight of 20,000 pounds or more.
The average hauling weight of a flatbed truck is 48,000 lbs, while the total weight should not exceed 80,000 lb., inclusive of the truck. The amount of cargo a flatbed can carry depends on the type of equipment and the weight of the truck when empty.
Full truckload rates depend on mileage, lane availability, seasonality, lead time, and fuel costs. The type of trailer you need will also affect the total cost. If you contact us with your shipping requirements, we’ll gladly provide you with a free, no-obligation quote.
