Parcel or LTL? We help you decide per SKU
Usually parcel
- Parts, accessories and consumables
- Small countertop or benchtop units within parcel limits
Usually LTL
- Full equipment units on pallets to business addresses
- Dealer and distributor replenishment
- Multi-unit project orders
Commercial equipment is LTL-first: parcel is mostly for parts. Delivery-site details (dock vs. liftgate, hours, access) are captured with the order. See LTL fulfillment.

Fulfillment guide
Commercial Equipment fulfillment: detailed considerations
Common fulfillment challenges
Business deliveries with conditions
Commercial addresses may or may not have a dock. Orders need the right equipment (liftgate, appointment, limited-access notes) on the BOL or the delivery fails.
Pallet build and freight class
Dense equipment on a well-built pallet rates differently than the same unit loose. Accurate weight, dimensions and NMFC-style freight descriptions keep LTL invoices predictable.
Parts and spares
After the equipment ships, customers need parts and accessories quickly by parcel — from the same inventory system.
Dealer and distributor channels
Most volume moves through dealers, distributors and direct business accounts rather than consumers.
B2B and retail considerations
- B2B buyers expect accurate BOLs, pallet labels and advance shipment details; these are part of the order workflow.
- Dealer pricing, terms and account management stay with the brand; Cloudway executes the physical fulfillment.
- Some commercial equipment is also sold through online channels such as Amazon, Walmart, eBay or a Shopify store; Cloudway supports seller-fulfilled workflows for those channels as well.
Frequently asked questions
- Can Cloudway ship palletized equipment to businesses without a loading dock?
- Yes, by booking LTL with carrier liftgate and, where needed, appointment delivery. These accessorials are carrier-delivered and quoted per shipment.
- Do you ship parts and accessories as well as full units?
- Yes. Parts ship by parcel and full units by LTL from the same inventory, so dealers and end customers can be served from one location.
- Does Cloudway install or service commercial equipment?
- No. Cloudway handles storage, order processing and shipping. Installation, commissioning and service are handled by the brand or its partners.
- Why does pallet build matter for LTL equipment shipments?
- Weight, dimensions and freight description on the BOL determine LTL pricing. A stable, correctly measured pallet reduces damage and reclassification charges.
Qualification notes
- Installation, commissioning, rigging and equipment servicing are not Cloudway services.
- Cloudway does not provide product safety, electrical or sanitation certification services; equipment must arrive ready to sell.
- Units that require forklifts beyond standard pallet handling, crating or special rigging are reviewed before onboarding.
- Cloudway operates a 40,000 sq ft warehouse in Hayward, CA with pallet storage and LTL capability. Fit is confirmed per product line after we review dimensions, weights, packaging and order profile — not assumed from the category.
- Retailer and marketplace programs set their own vendor, labeling and routing requirements. Cloudway supports workflows for these channels; it does not guarantee acceptance, placement or approval on any channel.
- Product safety, certification and labeling compliance remain the brand’s responsibility. Cloudway does not provide regulatory or certification services.
- Liftgate, residential and appointment delivery are carrier services and white-glove delivery is partner-delivered; all are quoted per shipment and depend on lane and destination.
