Services

For shipments that require the entire truck, or for shipments you want the entire truck dedicated to only your shipment, Merit Freight offers competitive full truckload rates.

For those shipments that are too large for LTL, our volume LTL service (AKA – partial truckload) is the perfect alternative. Rather than determine your rate by the shipment’s freight class, your rate is determined by the number of linear feet your shipment requires.

This is Merit Freight’s most economical service offering, with coverage throughout the U.S. and Canada. This service is for shipments up to 10,000 pounds requiring no more than 12 linear feet of trailer space. Rates are based on your shipment’s weight, freight class and NMFC number(s).

For those times when overnight is not fast enough, we offer same day service. Door to door or door to airport, your shipment will receive the highest priority from pick up to delivery. Our same day service is available 24/7, 365 days a year.

Next day delivery is available to most destinations in the U.S.. Our 2-day airfreight service is ideal for those shipments that are not quite as time critical but still require on time performance.

When your shipment must go direct from shipper to consignee, ask us about our exclusive use vehicle service. We have a complete fleet of vehicles available, ranging in size from a cargo van to a 53 foot tractor trailer, and we can deliver by ground within a 1000 mile radius within 24 hours!

Inside deliveries, multiple threshold crossings, assembly set-up and debris removal are just some of the optional features offered under our White Glove service.

For shipments that must maintain a certain temperature range while in transit, we offer our full truckload temperature controlled service. This service is a perfect fit for shipments that must be protected from freezing, or maintain an otherwise stable temperature while in transit.

For full truckload and dedicated truck shipments requiring temperature validation, we offer our validated temperature controlled service. From door closing at shipment origin to door opening at destination, temperature readings are obtained in increments of as little as 15 minute intervals. Temperature reports are available minutes after delivery. This is a valuable service for shipments that must meet FDA guidelines for temperature control.

Merit Freight Systems can assist you in meeting the challenges presented by distribution rollouts. As with all of our service options, you can take advantage of pro-active tracking and tracing to confirm each shipment of the rollout delivered on time.

When crews of installers and workers must have on time delivery to complete a job, you can depend on Merit Freight Systems to get the freight to the site on time.

Shipment moving under 100 miles? These shipments are a perfect fit for our local cartage service offering. Same-day and next-day service options are available, and we can accommodate shipments ranging in size from a single skid up to an entire truckload.

We understand the complexities and special needs involved with coordinating trade show shipments. We can ship your materials directly to your trade show or to the designated advanced receiving facility.
