Freight services

LTL, full truckload, customs coordination, cross-dock and local delivery — everything you need to move freight between Ontario and the United States.

LTL

Less-than-truckload

For shipments that do not fill a trailer. We pick up across the GTA, consolidate at our Concord cross-dock and run scheduled cross-border departures.

  • Priced by skid count, weight band or linear / cubic feet
  • Liftgate, inside, residential and appointment delivery available
  • Lower-cost northbound (backhaul) rates into Ontario
  • Ideal for forwarders and consolidators with recurring skids

Quote LTL

Good to know

Standard skids are 48" × 40". Tell us about oversize, non-stackable or overweight skids when you request a quote so we can plan space correctly.

Freight should be shrink-wrapped and labelled with consignee name, address and piece count.

Equipment

  • 53' dry vans for general freight
  • Straight trucks with tailgate for local and smaller loads
  • Load bars and straps on every trailer
FTL

Full truckload

A dedicated trailer from your dock to your customer’s — no transfers, no re-handling. Best for 12+ skids, high-value or time-critical freight.

  • Direct point-to-point service, Canada ⇄ USA
  • Drop-trailer options on regular lanes
  • Round-trip and recurring-lane pricing
