Heavy, bulky, and freight-class sensitive, HVAC and industrial freight doesn’t forgive shortcuts. FLI moves your equipment and industrial goods with the capacity, coverage, and reliability of a national network, matched to the right carrier, mode, and timeline.
Whether it’s a pallet of parts or a rooftop unit that won’t fit a dry van, we handle the complexity so your install schedule and margins stay intact.
When you’re replenishing distributor inventory, shipping equipment to a jobsite, or fulfilling parts orders on a deadline, the crew, the line, or the customer is already waiting on the freight.
FLI’s LTL, truckload, and over-dimensional services keep HVAC and industrial goods moving efficiently, compliantly, and on time, with a dedicated account team that treats your freight like it matters.
Industrial freight carries complications that standard freight doesn’t:
Air handlers, condensers, and machinery span a wide range of NMFC classes. A misclassified Bill of Lading means reclassification charges and inflated rates.
Liftgate, inside delivery, limited-access sites, and jobsite drop-offs are the norm, each one a cost and a coordination point.
Coils, control boards, and finished units don't tolerate rough handling. Damaged freight means claims, delayed installs, and unhappy customers.
Rooftop units, chillers, and large equipment often exceed standard dimensions and require flatbed, step-deck, or over-dimensional transport with proper permits and securement.
Returns, warranty units, and cores need a carrier relationship that moves freight in both directions.
FLI matches every shipment to the right mode and the right carrier from a network of 7,000+ trusted carriers, so an oversized chiller doesn’t end up on the wrong equipment and a pallet of parts doesn’t ride on an overpriced full truckload.
Your dedicated account manager coordinates accessorials, delivery windows, and install timing. And, if something goes wrong, we manage the freight claim on your behalf.
