  • LTL Shipping Guide What Is LTL Shipping?
    Roadrunner Freight’s LTL Shipping Guide What is LTL Shipping? Less-than-Truckload (LTL) shipping is the action of moving freight that does not require a full trailer and moving it from Point A to Point B. When shipping LTL freight, shipments will share the cost and amount of space occupied on a trailer with other freight. LTL shipping is a cost effective alternative to Truckload shipments and provides many benefits to shippers, such as flexibility and competitive prices. Companies of all sizes take advantage of the cost savings, benefits and expertise that LTL companies provide, and is particularly beneficial to eCommerce, retail and manufacturing companies. Roadrunner Freight | rrts.com/freight Less-than-Truckload vs. Truckload Shipping There are many different options a shipper can take to move freight. When deciding between using a Truckload (TL) carrier or a Less-than-Truckload (LTL) carrier, the number of pallets being shipped, the weight, space occupied and time constraints should be taken into consideration. Less-than-Truckload shipping is often less expensive and more economical than Truckload shipping. If there are strict deadlines, this information must be shared with the carrier to ensure that all parties are meeting expectations. Less-Than-Truckload (LTL) Shipment The trailer is filled up with shipments from different companies who pay for space based on the freight’s density and dimensional weight. shipper one shipper two shipper three shipper four ROADRUNNERR FREIGHT Truckload (TL) Shipment The entire trailer is filled with goods from the same shipper. one shipper Roadrunner Freight | rrts.com/freight LTL Industry Overview Less-than-Truckload shipping began when businesses recognized that they frequently needed to ship smaller amounts of goods in a cost efficient and economical way.

  • HOW to FIND VIN DECODERS Jan. 07, 2009 This Document Contains the File Names Followed by Motor Vehicle Manufacturer's Name Fo
    HOW TO FIND VIN DECODERS Jan. 07, 2009 This document contains the file names followed by motor vehicle manufacturer’s name for a great many of the VIN decoders received by NHTSA since the VIN regulations went into effect on October, 1980. It is not intended for amateur use, and as such is not equipped with the graphical user interfaces that main stream “www” consumer Internet sites are designed with. To use it, using your computer keyboard, hold “CONTROL” and tap “F” This action will bring up a query field. Only use one or two words of a manufacturer’s name when performing this search. It is best to use the second name of Chinese manufacturers as their first name may be a Province. Using the “find next” key stroke, go all the way through the document until you find (and record) every file name associated with your manufacturer. Manually type ftp://ftp.nhtsa.dot.gov/mfrmail or just click on this hyperlink. Hold “control” and tap “F” to display the search screen again allowing you to enter the previously discovered “file names.” Double clicking these file names brings up images of the manufacturer’s VIN decoders. NHTSA intends to revise these sites on the 1st and 3rd Wednesdays of each month: (1) ftp://ftp.nhtsa.dot.gov/mfrmail (2) ftp://ftp.nhtsa.dot.gov/manufacture (3) www.nhtsa.dot.gov.cars.rules.manufacture Page : 1 Monday May 22, 2006 Docket: 01-022N11-B Comment Date Date of Number Received Submitter/Firm/Subject Pages Document ======= ======= ================= ===== ======== 00001 04/17/1980 KEITH L.
