Whether You’re Looking to Ship Cargo or Simply Play Scrabble, We Have the Answers For You!
Freight is a common enough occurrence to make it a term brought up in everyday speech. It’s not common enough outside of businesses for everyone to know what it is. So what is it?
In short, freight is (usually) heavy cargo transported by air, sea, or ground. Goods that are too large or heavy to be shipped by a parcel service such as the USPS are considered freight.
The technical limitations of what makes a parcel are its weight and size. Anything heavier than 150 lbs is considered freight. Shipments weighing less than that could be considered either and what sets them apart is usually their size. As a rule of thumb, you can consider shipments larger than 30” x 30” x 30” freight.
