Decide if you need a liftgate truck for pickup or delivery.

If either you or your recipient doesn't have a loading dock, you can request a liftgate. If you don’t request a liftgate but you need one, your shipment may be delayed and generate added fees.

• If you need a liftgate for the pickup, make sure you check that box when you request the pickup.
• If your recipient needs a liftgate, you can add that to the Bill of Lading. On a FedEx-provided Bill of Lading, check the box at the bottom. You can also write it in the Delivery Instructions box.
• To confirm a liftgate is being sent, please call customer support after you’ve scheduled the pickup.

Schedule a freight pickup.

Freight pickups must be scheduled separately from package pickups. They can only be scheduled on the same day as the pickup. 

You can schedule a pickup when you create a shipment. Or arrange a pickup later.

You can also contact Freight Customer Service at 1.866.393.4585 to schedule a pickup.

Visit the how to schedule a freight pickup page if you have
any questions.

FedEx is the only carrier with pallet-level tracking for shipments created online. Each individual pallet receives its own shipping label and unique 12-digit tracking number – improving tracking and visibility from dock to delivery.
