Galls LTL Shipping Routing Instructions

Routing Instructions

December, 2024

GALLS is committed to continuous excellence and realizes our suppliers are crucial to that commitment. To better manage our company's inbound shipments, we have partnered with FedEx® as our primary carrier for our Less-than-Truckload (LTL) shipments. These routing instructions are to be followed when GALLS is responsible for paying transportation charges and supersede previous instructions.

Shipments that are over the LTL guidelines provided below, please contact: GallsInbounddelivery@galls.com. Our team will then provide the necessary shipment information and arrangements.

You MAY USE YOUR OWN BILL OF LADING OR YOU CAN CREATE AN ONLINE ACCOUNT. You must have your own FedEx® account number to process shipments ONLINE and to schedule pick-ups. If you don't already have an account, call FedEx Customer Support 1.800.GoFedEx (1.800.463.3339) for new account setup.

The preferred method to process our shipments is electronically on fedex.com. If that is not possible, please make sure that your shipping department understands how to fully complete the LTL Bill of Lading including our account number. Please find instructions below that are required to process the shipment electronically or to complete a manual Bill of Lading when shipping to our locations.
