Estes offers a full range of volume and truckload options. Since we offer both asset- and non-asset-based services, you enjoy the best of both worlds: the flexibility of a dot-com and the security of a reliable, asset-based truckload carrier with almost 80 years of experience.
Our comprehensive services include:
Asset-based Volume LTL
With our reliable, asset-based volume LTL solutions, you only pay for the trailer space you actually use. In addition, you can enjoy the flexibility of having a large, well-maintained fleet at your disposal. [Learn more]
Our fleet is extensive enough to offer you volume LTL solutions year-round—even during peak shipping periods. And, volume quotes are great for planning ahead since they’re valid for a full 30 days.
What qualifies as Volume LTL?
A shipment must be 5,000 pounds or more or take up at least 10 linear feet of the trailer.

Asset-based Truckload
Our asset-based truckload gives you access to full truckload services, cost-saving
backhaul capacity and a fleet available for your
dedicated use.
Backhaul
One of the ways we save you money on volume and truckload shipments is by utilizing our LTL backhaul lanes. A truck that was full on the way in may be heading home without a full load. Since we have extra space and are going where your freight happens to be headed, we pass the extra savings on to you.

Dedicated
Strategically located terminals and an extensive service area allow our dedicated teams to efficiently handle multiple loads on a daily basis. Due to a variety of direct lanes, we can get your freight there with minimum handling. Combined with our direct lanes, our large fleet of dependable equipment often leads to faster transit times.
