Interline

An Interline is a transportation term that refers to two or more motor carriers working together to haul a shipment to a destination. Carriers may interchange equipment but usually, they rehandle the shipment without transferring the equipment.

This can be an efficient way to move goods, as it allows for coordination between multiple carriers and can lead to cost savings. However, it is important to ensure that each party involved in the Interline understands its role and responsibilities. By working together, everyone involved can benefit from economies of scale while ensuring that the goods are delivered on time and in good condition.

In general, an Interline arrangement is beneficial for shippers and receivers who want to move goods quickly and cost-effectively.
