How Warp handles truckload
Warp assigns your full truckload to a carrier who has passed safety and quality vetting, authority verification, insurance validation, safety score review, equipment inspection history, and operating record.
The driver uses the Warp app with ELD integrations so you see live GPS position, hours of service, route status, and ETA for the entire transit.
Orbit monitors every load in real time, flagging late departures, route deviations, and delivery exceptions automatically.
Carrier vetting and performance management
Not every carrier in the 20,000+ network gets truckload assignments. Warp blocks carriers with poor safety records, lapsed insurance, or compliance issues.
For recurring programs, Warp tracks on-time performance, damage rates, and communication responsiveness per carrier and removes underperformers from your lanes. The Work Queue assigns consistent carriers to your recurring routes.
Hot Swap Coverage
When a carrier encounters an issue on an FTL load, a no-show, a late departure beyond threshold, or a mechanical failure, Hot Swap Coverage activates automatically.
Orbit detects the exception and Warp reassigns a replacement carrier from the network without waiting for your team to escalate. The replacement carrier picks up from the same location, and the shipment continues with full visibility.
You see the swap in your dashboard and receive a status update via API webhook. No phone calls, no scrambling for backup capacity, no missed appointments.
Dedicated lane programs and carrier bidding
Enterprise FTL programs are built around recurring lanes, not one-off spot transactions. Warp's platform tracks your recurring origin-destination pairs as dedicated lanes with committed capacity and contracted pricing.
Carrier assignment runs through structured bid sessions, Warp's carrier network submits competitive bids on your lanes programmatically, not through phone calls.
The result: market-rate pricing without spot-market volatility, and consistent carrier assignment that improves with every cycle. Volume forecasting models predict demand patterns across your lanes so Warp pre-positions capacity before you need it.
SLA tracking and performance dashboards
Warp tracks On-Time Pickup and On-Time Delivery on every FTL shipment and publishes SLA compliance dashboards for your account.
Performance reports break down by lane, carrier, and equipment type, so you see exactly where execution is strong and where it needs attention. OTP/OTD analytics export directly for your quarterly business reviews.
Orbit's AI monitoring flags SLA risks before they become misses, and carriers that underperform your thresholds are automatically removed from your lane assignments.
Cargo protection
Every Warp FTL shipment includes Carmack Amendment carrier liability up to $100,000 plus a $75K FMCSA surety bond at no extra cost. For higher-value freight, Warp offers optional Falvey cargo insurance as an add-on directly in the booking flow.
Add coverage up to $1M per shipment with one click at checkout, the policy is issued instantly and the certificate is downloadable from your shipment detail page. No separate application, no waiting for underwriting.
The insurance processing fee and premium are shown transparently in the cost breakdown before you confirm the booking.
Equipment and capacity
Warp dispatches dry van trailers. Standard dry van: 26 pallets / 44,000 lbs. For recurring truckload volume, your Warp rep builds a dedicated lane program, committed capacity, consistent pricing, assigned carriers. No spot market volatility.
Warp also quotes LTL on the same lane if your shipment does not fill a full trailer.
FTL pricing
FTL pricing is quoted per load based on lane distance, equipment type, and market conditions. Recurring programs with committed weekly volume receive contracted rates that are typically 15-25% below spot market.
Pricing includes fuel, driver, and equipment, no hidden accessorials or reweigh charges. The 27% average cost reduction is measured across enterprise programs that replaced legacy carrier arrangements with Warp network routing.
Frequently asked questions
When should a shipper use FTL instead of LTL?
FTL makes sense when the shipper consistently fills 12+ pallets per load on the same lane, needs guaranteed capacity with firm appointment times, or ships freight that is too fragile or high-value for shared handling.
The per-pallet cost of FTL becomes cheaper than LTL at roughly 10-14 pallets depending on lane distance and density.
What does Warp FTL include?
Warp FTL provides dedicated 53-foot dry van capacity on recurring lanes with confirmed appointment scheduling, live GPS tracking via the Warp driver app, ELD integrations, and carrier performance management.
Programs are designed around the shipper volume patterns and facility requirements rather than spot-market availability.

About the Warp freight network
Warp is a technology-driven freight network that combines cargo van, box truck, LTL, and FTL capacity under one operating system. Shippers get instant rates, real-time tracking, and access to 50+ cross-dock facilities, 1,500+ active lanes, and 9,000+ cargo vans and box trucks nationwide.
The network is supported by 20,000+ vetted carrier partners.
Unlike traditional brokers, Warp uses AI to match the right vehicle to every load based on weight, dimensions, urgency, and cost targets. Cross-dock operations reduce transit time by eliminating unnecessary terminal transfers.
Pool distribution and zone-skipping programs help enterprise shippers lower per-unit delivery costs while maintaining tight appointment windows.
Self-serve shippers can quote, compare, and book freight online in under two minutes. Enterprise accounts get dedicated capacity planning, committed rate programs, and a named operations team. Every shipment includes scan-level visibility from pickup through final delivery.
Warp operates across the contiguous United States with regional density in the Southeast, Texas, Midwest, and Northeast corridors.
Cross-dock facilities in Atlanta, Chicago, Houston, New York, Savannah, Orlando, Charlotte, Indianapolis, Columbus, Denver, New Orleans, and Milwaukee support faster transfers and fewer touches on recurring lanes.
Freight modes and vehicle types
Cargo vans handle loads up to 3,500 pounds and 400 cubic feet, ideal for time-sensitive deliveries, last-mile retail replenishment, and lightweight palletized freight.
Box trucks carry up to 10,000 pounds and 1,500 cubic feet, fitting most regional distribution and store delivery needs without requiring a loading dock.
Dry vans and full truckloads move 42,000+ pounds for high-volume lanes and recurring programs. LTL shipments share trailer space on optimized routes through Warp cross-docks, reducing per-pallet cost by consolidating multiple shippers on the same vehicle.
Warp does not default every shipment to a 53-foot trailer. The AI engine evaluates load weight, cube, delivery window, and cost to recommend the right vehicle. Shippers see all available mode options with live pricing in one comparison screen before booking.
Cross-dock operations
Cross-docking at Warp facilities eliminates warehouse storage. Inbound freight is sorted and transferred directly to outbound vehicles, typically within hours.
This reduces dwell time, lowers damage risk, and compresses delivery windows. Warp cross-docks support pallet-in, pallet-out operations with scan-level tracking at every handoff point.
Facility locations are selected for corridor density: Atlanta handles Southeast retail flow, Chicago serves Midwest manufacturing and replenishment, Houston covers Texas industrial distribution, and New York supports dense Northeast delivery. Each facility operates on appointment-based scheduling to prevent congestion and maintain throughput consistency.
Enterprise freight programs
Enterprise shippers get committed rate programs, dedicated account management, and custom SLA design. Warp builds lane-by-lane rate structures that account for volume commitments, seasonal variation, and mode flexibility. Operations teams monitor shipment execution daily and intervene proactively when exceptions occur.
Self-serve freight quoting
The self-serve portal lets shippers enter origin and destination, load details, and delivery requirements to see live rates across all available modes. Quotes include estimated transit time, vehicle type, and total cost.
Booking takes one click. After booking, shippers track every shipment with real-time GPS location, milestone updates, and proof of delivery documentation.
Industries and use cases
Retail shippers use Warp for store replenishment programs that deliver to hundreds of locations per week on tight appointment windows. Apparel brands use zone skipping to bypass regional parcel sortation and reduce per-unit delivery cost.
Food and beverage companies rely on time-definite delivery for perishable goods. Manufacturing operations use Warp for inbound vendor consolidation, combining multiple supplier shipments into fewer, fuller loads through cross-dock facilities.
Distribution companies use pool distribution to serve multiple delivery points from a single origin, splitting full truckloads at cross-docks into smaller last-mile vehicles.
Urgent freight recovery covers emergency capacity needs when primary carriers fail or demand spikes unexpectedly. Middle-mile optimization reduces cost and transit time on the longest segment of multi-leg shipments.
