What is the difference between Warp LTL and the other carriers on Warp?

Warp LTL is Warp's own all inclusive hub-and-spoke LTL carrier service. The other carriers on the platform are major LTL providers you can also book on Warp at FAK negotiated rates: national carriers like XPO Logistics, Old Dominion, Estes Express, Saia, FedEx Freight, ABF Freight, R+L Carriers, TForce Freight, and Forward Air, plus regional specialists like Pitt Ohio, Averitt Express, AAA Cooper, Ward Trucking, Dohrn Transfer, Daylight Transport, and 23+ more across the network.

The carrier options give you flexibility when you prefer a specific provider for service level or transit reasons. One signup, one invoice, one point of accountability across all of them.

What are FAK rates on Warp?

FAK stands for Freight All Kinds. It is a single negotiated rate that applies regardless of the commodity's freight class, typically 15 to 25% lower than class based rates. Direct LTL carriers usually reserve FAK pricing for shippers with $1M+ annual spend. Warp negotiates FAK rates with every major LTL carrier on the platform and passes them through to every shipper, starting from the first booking. That means a small business shipping its first pallet on Warp gets the same FAK rates as an enterprise shipper moving thousands.
