Reliable solutions in international road freight, refrigerated transport and cold chain logistics.
Less-than-truckload transport is a logistics solution developed for cargo that does not fill a full vehicle's capacity but still requires international shipment. Also known as LTL (Less Than Truckload), this service model consolidates shipments from different senders into the same vehicle, sharing the transport cost among them. As a result, each sender is responsible only for the space their own cargo occupies. At Sami Logistics, we operate regular less-than-truckload services to Europe and neighboring regions. At our consolidation centers, cargo arriving from different locations is collected, sorted, and combined with other shipments heading to the same destination. Transport planning is carried out according to the volume and weight distribution of the cargo, ensuring efficient use of vehicle capacity. Less-than-truckload transport offers a particularly economical alternative for companies with shipment needs that are not large in volume but occur on a continuing basis. By scheduling services on specific routes every week or every two weeks, we accommodate our customers' shipping calendars. During the consolidation process, careful handling and proper stacking are used to manage the risk of damage.
Less-than-truckload transport is suited to small and medium-sized exporters, e-commerce companies, manufacturers sending samples, and businesses with regular but lower-volume shipment needs. Where you cannot fill a full vehicle but have an ongoing need for international transport, less-than-truckload service delivers a clear cost advantage.

No. Each customer's cargo is labeled and transported as separate pallets or boxes. During in-vehicle stacking, shipments are kept apart from one another to minimize the risk of damage.
Yes, because consolidation and distribution add extra steps, transit times for less-than-truckload services may be somewhat longer than for full truckload transport. However, thanks to the regular service schedule, this time is known and can be planned for in advance.
