Your end-to-end trucking solutions
Maersk Specialized LTL operates across all 50 U.S. states and 7,500+ Canadian locations, delivering consistent ground freight performance for both B2B and B2C shippers. The service handles standard and non-standard cargo — including heavy, bulky, odd-sized, high-value and fragile shipments requiring specialized handling or equipment.
Delivered through Maersk Ground Freight, it achieves a 96%+ on-time delivery rate and an industry-low claims ratio of under 1%. Advanced visibility tools provide real-time tracking across vendors and carriers, while minimal handling points and an own-controlled network of trucks, trailers, stations and hubs keep cargo moving safely and efficiently from coast to coast.
Services
Give your cargo the care it deserves to turn first-time buyers into loyal customers. Whether B2B or B2C, our diverse services meet all your requirements.

Our expert team handles every shipment with precision, from expedited transport and white glove delivery to assembly, asset recovery, and 24/7 support, seamlessly integrated into your operations.
B2C Specialized LTL
