Flock Freight

Flock Freight is a freight brokerage based in Encinitas, California, that operates the largest shared truckload (STL) service in the United States. The company serves shippers of all sizes, from growing brands to large enterprises, moving dry van freight across the continental U.S.

Flock Freight's primary offering is its FlockDirect shared truckload service, which combines multiple shipments from different shippers into a single truck on optimized, terminal-free routes. This sits between traditional LTL and full truckload — shippers pay only for the space they use but get truckload-level service with direct routing and minimal freight handling. Flock Freight also offers standard full truckload and LTL brokerage services. The company works with thousands of vetted dry van carriers across its network. Shipments move without transloading through terminals, which results in significantly lower damage rates compared to traditional LTL.

Shippers commonly use Flock Freight for partial or multi-pallet shipments that are too large for cost-effective LTL but don't fill an entire truck. The shared truckload model is well suited for shippers looking to reduce freight costs compared to full truckload, improve on-time performance compared to LTL, and lower their carbon footprint through more efficient truck utilization.
