UPS has long been regarded as the leading provider of small package delivery. They have aggressively expanded their freight and other transportation solutions through a series of strategic acquisitions. The latest addition to this portfolio includes LTL freight services, which complements UPS’s global capabilities to provide customers a single source for multiple modes of transportation.
UPS Freight is the LTL trucking division of UPS. UPS acquired on August 8, 2005, Overnite Transportation for $1.25 billion. On April 28, 2006, Overnite Transportation officially became UPS Ground Freight, Inc.
