Long distance, small freight

10 / AIR FREIGHT QUESTIONS
Straight answers
Don’t see yours? Add it to your quote request and a dispatcher will reply.
What is domestic air freight?
Domestic air freight moves a shipment between U.S. cities on the next available flight, with a truck handling the pickup and the final delivery. It is the fastest option when a truck would take days.
How late can I call for a flight today?
Call as soon as you know. The cut-off depends on the airline and the drive to the airport, and dispatch will tell you right away if today is still possible.
Is there a size limit?
Passenger flights take smaller pieces; cargo flights take pallets and crates. Send the dimensions and we will pick the right one.
Can you ship dangerous goods by air?
Some classes, with the right packing and paperwork. Tell us the UN number when you ask for a quote.
Do you deliver on weekends?
Yes, when the receiver is open. Weekend delivery is quoted up front.
Is air freight insured?
Carrier liability applies by default. We can add cargo insurance for high-value shipments.
