Dedicated full truck load transport across the UK and Europe, with one vehicle, one direct route and a fleet matched to your cargo.
When your shipment is too large to share a vehicle, or too valuable to risk extra handling, a full truck load is the right choice. AMW Couriers provides dedicated full truck load services across the UK and into Europe. Your goods get exclusive use of the whole vehicle, from collection to delivery.
No shared loads. No unnecessary stops. Just your freight, your vehicle and a direct route to its destination.
Operating from our base in Stourbridge in the West Midlands, we handle one-off movements and regular full load haulage for businesses of every size. Get a free full truck load quote today.
Full truck load (FTL) shipping is a freight method where one customer books the entire capacity of a vehicle. The truck carries only your consignment and travels directly from collection to delivery.
With less than truckload (LTL) shipping, several customers share one vehicle. Their goods are loaded, unloaded and transferred at points along the route.
Because an FTL vehicle makes no intermediate stops, transit times are faster and your goods are handled far less. That means a much lower risk of damage or loss. FTL transport usually becomes the most cost-effective option once a shipment reaches around seven to eight full pallets, or fills the vehicle's weight or space limit.
At AMW Couriers, we build every FTL movement around your cargo, whether it’s a one-off load or part of a regular freight schedule.
Your goods fill the whole vehicle and nothing else is loaded alongside them. You get faster transit, fewer handling points and more confidence in how your freight arrives. This matters most for fragile, high-value or time-sensitive consignments, where any delay or extra movement costs money.
Full truck load requirements don't always come with notice. For urgent movements, our same day delivery service can get a dedicated vehicle on the road quickly. For planned, recurring freight, scheduled deliveries and contract runs let you book ahead and plan around a fixed timetable.
Shared network freight often can't take oversized, non-standard or very heavy loads. With FTL, we select a vehicle to suit what you're moving, so shared-network limits don't apply. For the biggest consignments, see our large vehicles service.
Some cargo needs more than a standard trailer. We also run dedicated loads for temperature controlled delivery and ADR hazardous goods transport, handled by drivers and vehicles equipped for the job.
Our full truck load service covers England, Scotland and Wales, and extends into European haulage routes. Whether your freight is staying in the UK or crossing a border, you get the same care and communication from collection to delivery.
For cross-border loads, our team can also manage the paperwork. We handle export freight, import freight and customs clearance, so your goods don't get held up at the border.
Not every shipment needs a full truck load, but for many businesses it's clearly the better option. Here's when it may be a good move to choose our logistics company for your FTL services.

FTL gives you exclusive use of a vehicle and a direct journey. LTL (less than truckload) means sharing a vehicle with other customers' goods, which is cheaper for small shipments but slower and involves more handling.
FTL (full truck load) shipping means one customer books the whole vehicle for their goods. Our truck travels directly from collection to delivery with no other freight on board, which makes transit faster and reduces handling.
