Retail & Wholesale Inventory Transport in the USA – What You Need to Know
Retail and wholesale inventory shipments move daily between manufacturers, distribution centers, warehouses, and retail stores throughout North America. These shipments may include palletized merchandise, boxed consumer goods, seasonal inventory, packaged products, electronics, clothing, and store fixtures.
Transport planning depends on pallet count, shipment weight, freight class, packaging method, and delivery type (commercial dock or retail store). Most retail freight moves via dry van trailers for enclosed protection, while temperature-sensitive goods may require refrigerated trailers. Professional logistics coordination ensures compliance with freight standards, safe cargo securement, and on-time store replenishment.
American Heavy Haul & Logistic provides dependable retail and wholesale inventory shipping throughout the USA and Canada with organized scheduling and reliable delivery.

- Full Truckload (FTL) Shipments

Shipping Cost for Retail & Wholesale Inventory
The cost of transporting retail inventory depends on shipment size, total weight, freight class, trailer type, service level (LTL or FTL), and distance. Smaller shipments are typically handled via LTL, while larger distribution loads utilize full truckload transport.
Liftgate service, residential delivery, appointment scheduling, expedited shipping, and seasonal demand may affect final pricing.
| Shipment Type | Weight Range | Estimated Cost |
|---|---|---|
| Single Pallet (LTL) | Up to 2,000 lbs | $150 – $500 |
| Multiple Pallets (LTL) | 2,000 – 15,000 lbs | $600 – $2,200 |
| Partial Truckload | 15,000 – 25,000 lbs | $1,500 – $4,500 |
| Full Truckload (FTL) | 25,000 – 45,000 lbs | $2,500 – $7,500 |
| Expedited Retail Freight | Varies | Custom Quote |
Distance & Estimated Shipping Cost
Shipping costs vary depending on the distance your equipment needs to travel. Use the table below to estimate per mile rates and total transport costs for different distances. Actual charges may vary based on route, fuel prices, and equipment size.
| Distance Range | Average Rate Per Mile | Estimated Total Cost |
|---|---|---|
| 0 – 100 Miles | $3 – $6 | $400 – $1,200 |
| 100 – 300 Miles | $2.50 – $5 | $900 – $3,000 |
| 300 – 700 Miles | $2 – $4 | $2,000 – $6,500 |
| 700 – 1,200 Miles | $1.75 – $3.50 | $3,500 – $9,500 |
| 1,200+ Miles | Custom Rate | Custom Quote |
FTL Transport vs. Other Freight Shipping Services
Full Truckload (FTL) shipping typically costs more than shared freight options because the entire trailer is dedicated to a single shipment. Here’s why:
| Freight Type | Average Transport Cost | Key Cost Factors |
|---|---|---|
| Retail Inventory (LTL) | $150 – $2,200 | Freight class |
| Full Truckload (FTL) | $2,500 – $7,500 | Dedicated trailer |
| Palletized Freight | $150 – $1,500 | Volume |
| Refrigerated Freight | $2,000 – $8,000 | Temperature control |
| Heavy Equipment Transport | $2,500 – $12,000+ | Permits & weight |
