About the Company

FedEx Freight

LTL freight carrier serving North America

FedEx Freight moves less-than-truckload (LTL) freight in North America, carrying shipments heavy enough for trucking but not requiring a full trailer. It operates the largest LTL network in the United States, built through the Caliber System and American Freightways acquisitions that were integrated into the FedEx network. The service offers fast transit options like FedEx Freight Priority (1–3 days) and economical options like FedEx Freight Economy (3–6 days), plus time-definite, door-to-door, and specialized services such as FedEx Custom Critical for high-value or hazardous goods. Its goal is to provide a streamlined, cross-border shipping solution within the U.S., Canada, and Mexico with a single pickup, single bill of lading, and centralized pricing, while pursuing strategic value through a planned spin-off to focus on LTL growth.
