| | liquidación | Explanation:
It really depends on the context and the type of "truckload sale" they are referring to...
They could mean it literally, i.e., what you can carry off in a truckload.
EXAMPLE: http://www.mercedesusedparts.com/truckload_sale.htm
Or it could mean that they don't deliver - you provide your own truck to haul it away. Similar to "cash and carry" sales. Furniture stores tend to do this.
Or they could mean that they are bringing in truckloads of goods for liquidation. These are generally displayed under big tents, in empty warehouses, or open air parking lots.
EXAMPLE: http://surfmanhattan.net/PurpleWave/20010526/index.shtml
And they can also mean that they bring the goods in a big truck to a parking lot and sell the items directly out of the truck.
EXAMPLE: http://www.envirocare.net/truckload_sales.htm
So I would suggest you try to find out from your client (or from the context of your document) which type of truckload sale they're referring to.
¡Suerte!
