TForce Freight, a subsidiary of TFI International, is an American less than truckload (LTL) freight carrier based in Richmond, Virginia. [1] The company was founded in 1935 as Overnite Transportation, [2] the name it used until 2006 when it was rebranded UPS Freight by new owner UPS.
The lot is leased on an annual basis by UPS from the Indiana Toll Road Concession Company, the owners of the Indiana Toll Road. It shares the West Point name with the westernmost ITR toll plaza, also known as "West Point", 5.9 miles (9.5 km) north, but the Hammond CACH facility is sometimes erroneously marked as "Hopkins, Indiana".
Also, a number of accessory services are available from LTL carriers, which are not typically offered by FTL carriers. These optional services include liftgate service at pickup or delivery, residential (also known as "non-commercial") service at pickup or delivery, inside delivery, notification prior to delivery, freeze protection, and others.
