Cross Border and LTL Freight |
Cross Border means loads which are being exported into the US or
Mexico, or being imported into Canada. Delivering products
across the border requires professional handling of documents for
Customs purposes. All shipments into the United States now
require ACE manifest documentation. Failure to prepare
documentation properly may seriously delay delivery of products.
Dedicated Service
means "Load and Go" The service is "dedicated" to the one
client. Trucks do not stop to load any other loads, and
transport the shipment directly to destination without delay.
LTL means
"Less Than Load". Usually, 53 foot trailers are loaded with product
from numerous places and their contents are delivered over several
days. Often the loads are transferred to other trucks at a
docking location for delivery over time in concentrated areas.
A 24 foot dock level truck can be used for the same purpose for
shorter distances.
FTL
means "Full Truck Load". We can now offer 53 foot trailers to
any destination in Canada, the USA, and Mexico.
