    Definition of Truckload (FTL)
 Truckload (FTL) is the freight mode that shippers utilize when they require the full 53' 
space of a trailer for a shipment. The max weight of a full truckload is roughly 45,000 
pounds.
 Truckload Shipping is a method of transporting goods by road. The freight is transported in 
large truck trailers across long distances. These trailers can carry up to 45 pallets, hold up 
to 43,000 pounds of good.
 A truckload (TL) refers to a quantity of freight that is large enough to fill an entire trailer. 
This typically translates to somewhere in the region of 24 to 30 pallets or 20k – 45K lbs. for 
standard equipment and 46K – 50K lbs. for lightweight trailers.

How to Calculate 
Truck Payload 
Capacity ?
 If you have a light-duty truck with a GVWR of 9,000 
pounds and a curb weight of 6,000 pounds, the 
payload capacity will be 3,000 pounds
 
 
                   GVWR – curb weight = payload capacity
9,000 pounds – 6,000 pounds = 3,000 pounds
 
How to Calculate 
Truck Towing 
Capacity ?
 You need to know the GCVWR and the curb weight. 
Subtract the latter amount from the former to find the 
maximum towing capacity: 
 
          GCVWR – curb weight = maximum towing capacity
15,000 pounds – 6,000 pounds – 1,250 pounds – (3 people 
x 150 pounds each) – 1,190 pounds = 6,110 pounds 
towing capacity with body additions.
