Load Factor
Percentage of available transport capacity actually used, measured by weight, volume, pallets or another constraint.
Examples
- 01The load factor of outbound trucks is 71 % by pallet places, because partial loads leave every afternoon.
- 02The transport review tracks load factor by route alongside cost per pallet and on-time delivery.
- 03Combining two daily departures into one raises the load factor to 92 % without missing any delivery window.
