CLT Air Freight Carrier
The 4 S's of CLT Stability, Service, Security and Safety.

Our goal is to provide each of our customers with freight solutions that are better, faster and more value added. At CLT Air Freight we stress consistency, our ability to communicate with our customers for a smooth shipping experience.

CLT Air Freight got its start in 1996 with a single vision to operate a cost-effective LTL, FTL trucking and warehouse company in the Carolinas. In 2001 we had the good fortune to build our own building that allowed our expansion. Today, we have two locations, (Charlotte/Raleigh-Durham, NC) with over 105,000 square feet of warehouse space and over 85 employees strong to service our customers!

We are TSA and IAC Certified. We are Hazmat Certified Warehouse and a US Custom & Border Protection Container Freight Station and C-TPAT compliant. All of our CLT employees are TSA certified and many of our drivers are Hazmat Certified as well.

We also offer door-to-door exclusive use services with all freight solutions through our sister company, CLT Freight Brokers. Our brokerage can deliver your freight coast-to-coast and Canada; learn more about CLT Freight Brokers on our Home page.
