What is Deferred Shipping?

Deferred Shipping is an efficient and cost-effective solution for shipments with long lead times or without time constraints. Multiple shipments are purposely delayed and consolidated to be transported as a single shipment. It can also be used by customers as a way of deferring payment. 

Deferred shipping may allow businesses to combine multiple shipments into a full truckload or may be offered as part of deferred LTL services. For smaller businesses, deferred LTL solutions would still provide cost savings that come with sharing trailer space.
