A full truckload is usually the carriage of a single type of cargo, for example, it can be food ⎼ cereals and pulses. But transportation of soaps with food items would be a strict no-no in full truckloads. The haulage could be by a general purpose (GP) container (Dry Van), a flatbed, a refrigerated container, etc.
It is important that the goods are packed and stowed properly if using FTL the container is not completely filled. Otherwise, it may be damaged during transportation. You also need to analyze the cost and benefits of transporting FTL. Benchmarking with less than a truck load is also critical. Failure to comply with this rule may result in additional unnecessary costs.
