What is a Truckload?

A truckload is a load of goods that is transported by truck. In the context of a truck transport, the total weight and load securing are of particular importance. Contraventions are described in the catalogue of fines. The responsibility for the truck load is usually in the hands of trained personnel who are well acquainted with the technical possibilities and the exact legal regulations. Nevertheless, the driver is also obliged to check the truck load carefully and to make a complaint if necessary.
