Multi-Stop
A truckload shipment with more than one pickup or delivery location on the same route. Multi-stop loads allow shippers to consolidate smaller shipments going in the same direction onto a single truck, reducing costs compared to booking separate shipments. Each additional stop typically incurs a stop-off charge of $50 to $200.
