Comprehensive Freight Logistics Solutions
Less-Than-Truckload (LTL) Shipping
Not every shipment needs a full truck. Our LTL freight management services let you share trailer space with other shippers, cutting costs without cutting corners on service. Your freight gets consolidated with compatible shipments heading in the same direction, which means you only pay for the space you actually use.
LTL works particularly well when you're shipping smaller loads or when your delivery timeline has some flexibility. Transit times run a bit longer than dedicated truck options because of the consolidation process, but the cost savings often make this the smartest choice. Our logistics planning services ensure your freight gets routed efficiently through the most reliable carriers in our network.
Best for: Freight between 150 and 15,000 pounds, shipments on pallets, businesses looking to optimize shipping costs
Full Truckload (FTL) Shipping
Speed matters when you've got deadlines to meet. Full truckload shipping puts your freight on a dedicated truck that goes straight from pickup to delivery with no stops in between. You get faster transit times and complete trailer capacity, whether you're filling it with a single large shipment or multiple orders going to the same destination.
FTL freight logistics eliminate the handling that comes with consolidated shipping. Your freight stays on one truck with one driver for the entire journey, which reduces the risk of damage and keeps your delivery schedule tight. With access to over 5,000 carriers across North America, we can secure the right equipment when you need it.
Best for: Shipments over 15,000 pounds, time-sensitive deliveries, freight that fills most or all of a trailer, high-value cargo requiring minimal handling
Intermodal & Rail Freight
When you're moving freight along major transportation corridors and have flexibility on timing, intermodal logistics services deliver serious cost savings. Rail freight uses a combination of truck and train transport to move containers across long distances efficiently. Your shipment travels by truck to a rail terminal, rides the rails for the long haul, then completes the final leg by truck again.
This freight transport logistics option works exceptionally well for consistent routes between major Canadian markets. Rail capacity is substantial, fuel efficiency is high, and rates stay competitive even during peak shipping seasons when truck capacity tightens. If your shipment can handle a few extra days in transit, intermodal freight offers one of the most cost-effective solutions available.
Best for: Long-distance hauls over 800 kilometres, shipments with flexible delivery windows, regular routes between major centres, businesses prioritizing cost over speed
Freight Logistics Services Built Around Your Business
We work with manufacturers, distributors, retailers, and project managers who need reliable freight transport logistics. Some ship daily. Others coordinate occasional large moves. What they share is the need for a logistics services provider who understands their business and delivers consistent results.
Your freight gets treated like our own because your success directly impacts ours. We're not interested in one-time transactions. We build long-term partnerships with companies that value responsive service, competitive rates, and logistics planning that actually makes their operations easier.
With 25,000 square feet of warehouse space in Surrey, BC, we can also handle storage, cross-docking, and order fulfillment when your freight logistics strategy requires more than transportation alone. That integrated approach means fewer vendors to manage and better coordination across your entire supply chain.
