Dry Van and Reefer Freight in Ohio
Two trailer types cover most Ohio truckload freight. Tell us what you ship and we'll match the equipment.
Dry Van Truckload
53-foot dry van for palletized and floor-loaded freight: retail and consumer goods, packaged food, paper, parts and general cargo moving in, out of and across Ohio.
Reefer Truckload
Temperature-controlled freight goes in a reefer. We confirm temperature, pre-cool and appointment details up front so your Ohio reefer load is covered correctly.

Why Shippers Work With LFS
Freight fraud and unreliable carriers cost shippers time. Our answer is a carrier vetting process built into our own tools: LFS Shield for authority, insurance and fraud checks, and LFS Compliance for carrier records.
LFS AOS with MT tracks the load and keeps the paperwork together, and Freight University trains the carriers and drivers in our network.

Ohio Coverage, Corridors and Major Markets
We cover freight in and out of Columbus, Cleveland and Cincinnati. Primary corridors include I-70, I-71, I-75 and I-80. Dry van volume is heavy on manufacturing and auto-related freight. Reefer capacity supports food movements.
Ohio sits within a day's drive of much of the country's population, so dry van demand is steady and holiday retail peaks tighten capacity.
Example lanes we can quote include Columbus to Atlanta, Cincinnati to Dallas and Cleveland to Harrisburg, along with in-state moves between Columbus, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Toledo and Dayton. These are examples, not fixed schedules: send any origin and destination in the lower 48.
- Markets: Columbus, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Toledo and Dayton
- Interstates: I-70, I-71, I-75, I-77 and I-80/90
- Gateway: Columbus and Rickenbacker distribution hubs
- Common freight: retail, auto parts and manufactured goods

When is truck capacity tightest in Ohio?
Ohio sits within a day's drive of much of the country's population, so dry van demand is steady and holiday retail peaks tighten capacity. Sending your pickup window early gives us the most options.
Can you move retail out of Ohio?
Often, yes. Tell us the commodity, equipment and any handling needs on the quote form and we'll match a carrier that fits the freight.
