Business profile

Updated

Old Dominion Freight Line is a North American less-than-truckload, or LTL, carrier. It transports freight for businesses that do not need to dedicate an entire truck to a single shipment. Founded in 1934, the company is headquartered in Thomasville, North Carolina. Marty Freeman is its president and chief executive officer.

In LTL shipping, a carrier typically collects shipments from several customers on one truck. Freight moves through service centers, where it can be transferred to trucks carrying goods toward similar destinations. Old Dominion’s local centers pick up and deliver freight, while its linehaul operations move freight between centers. Inbound freight received overnight is generally scheduled for local delivery the next business day, unless the customer requests otherwise.
