How We Ship: LTL Trucking and More for Musical Instruments and Equipment

“Takes time, you pick a place to go, and just keep truckin’ on.” – The Grateful Dead

Music Freight specializes in affordable and dependable LTL trucking for musical equipment. Regardless if you are a retailer, manufacturer, distributor, backline or live event production company Music Freight has a solution for you. If you have less than a full truckload to ship, an LTL carrier can often transport your goods for a fraction of what it would cost to hire an entire truck and trailer.  LTL shipments typically weigh between 100 and 10,000 lbs. and the equipment is stacked and shrink wrapped on to pallets. Our carriers collect freight from various shippers and consolidate that freight onto enclosed trailers for linehaul to the delivering terminal.
