A full truckload shipment can range from 24 to 30 pallets and up. With truckload freight, the space your shipment takes up in the trailer has more of an impact than weight, so truckload shipments commonly range from 5,000 pounds to 45,000 pounds and up.

When calculating freight charges by quantity, the total product quantity ordered determines an order's freight charges. To calculate freight rates by order quantity, you must define rates for ranges of product quantities. Quantity ranges are defined on the Set up freight by total quantity window.

Subtract the curb weight from the GVWR to find the payload capacity. For example, 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.
