What is a truckload liquidation?

A truckload liquidation is a wholesale load of merchandise sold in bulk, usually on full pallets. These loads often include overstock, shelf pulls, customer returns, open-box items, or other excess retail inventory sourced directly from major distribution centers.

Who buys truckloads of liquidation merchandise?

Truckloads are commonly purchased by bin stores, discount retailers, exporters, thrift stores, flea market vendors, auction sellers, e-commerce resellers, and warehouse outlets. Many buyers choose truckloads because they offer a large amount of inventory at a lower cost per item.

What condition are truckloads sold in?

Condition varies by load. Some truckloads are mostly brand new overstock, while others may include shelf pulls, open-box merchandise, customer returns, or mixed-condition inventory. Each product page should list the expected condition so buyers know what type of load they are purchasing.

Are truckloads picked through before shipping?

Many loads ship direct from distribution centers and are sold exactly as received, while others may be processed by category or condition. Some loads are marketed specifically as untouched, raw, or unpicked inventory, while others are case pack or sorted loads.

How many pallets are in a truckload?

Most truckloads contain between 24 and 26 pallets, but this can vary depending on the category and product size. Some high-cube export containers and special double-stack loads may be packed differently.

What products can be included in general merchandise truckloads?

General merchandise loads may include toys, housewares, kitchenware, electronics, small appliances, bedding, tools, lawn and garden products, storage items, office supplies, décor, furniture, personal items, and many other everyday retail categories.

Are truckloads good for bin stores?

Yes. High piece count loads are especially popular for bin stores because they contain thousands of smaller items that can be sold individually at daily bin pricing. Buyers often choose bin store truckloads for variety, turnover, and margin potential.

Do you sell Amazon truckloads?

Yes. Amazon loads may include general merchandise, high piece count bin store loads, clothing, shoes, grocery products, blue wrap loads, medium merchandise, bulk returns, and other category-specific truckloads. You can browse current Amazon truckloads for available options.

Do you sell Target truckloads?

Yes. Target truckloads may include raw general merchandise, case pack overstock, bedding, clothing, toys, premium mediums, high piece count loads, and other specialized categories. You can browse available Target truckloads for more details.

Can I buy only one pallet instead of a full truckload?

Most of the loads discussed on this site are sold by the full truckload. If a load is truckload-only, that means it is not available by the single pallet. Product pages generally specify when a load must be purchased as a full truckload.

How long does shipping take?

Shipping time depends on the specific load and the distribution center location. Many truckloads ship within about 3 to 10 business days from payment, while some specialty loads may take longer. Each product page should list the expected shipping timeframe.

How do I get a freight quote?

You can request a freight quote by using the truckload shipping quote form. Freight costs depend on the load, pallet count, shipment type, and destination.

Do you ship truckloads nationwide?

Yes, many truckloads can be shipped throughout the United States. Shipping points vary by product category and retailer, which is why some loads ship from multiple states to help reduce freight costs.

Do you sell export truckloads or containers?

Yes, some loads are especially popular for export, and some are sold specifically as export-only container loads. Many buyers in Central America, South America, and other international markets purchase truckloads and containers for overseas resale.

What does “raw” mean on a truckload?

A raw truckload usually means the inventory has not been sorted, processed, or repacked beyond its normal handling. Buyers receive the merchandise in a more original state, which often means more variety and less picking through.

What is a case pack truckload?

A case pack truckload contains products packed in retail cases, often with multiples of the same item in different sizes, colors, or variations. This type of load is popular for organized store shelves and resale environments where consistency matters.

What is a high piece count truckload?

A high piece count truckload contains a very large number of smaller items rather than fewer large items. These loads are often used by bin stores because they offer strong variety and many individual sale opportunities in one shipment.

What is a blue wrap truckload?

A blue wrap truckload typically refers to Amazon merchandise shipped on pallets wrapped in Amazon’s blue shrink wrap. These loads are often associated with overstock and open-box goods and are popular with buyers looking for premium medium and large merchandise.

Do truckloads come with manifests?

Some loads are sold with manifests, while others are not. Raw loads, high piece count loads, and certain direct distribution center loads may be sold without detailed manifests. The listing usually indicates whether a manifest is available.

Are truckloads profitable?

Profitability depends on the load type, the buyer’s selling method, labor costs, freight cost, and local demand. Many buyers choose truckloads because they offer lower inventory costs and the opportunity to resell merchandise across multiple channels such as retail stores, flea markets, auctions, and online platforms.

How do I place an order?

The fastest way to start is to contact the sales team or request a freight quote. Once the load and shipping details are confirmed, the order can be reserved and processed based on the terms provided for that truckload.
