FAQ
Frequently asked questions about our transport services
Do you have any questions about our services or how refrigerated transport and LTL work? Here are the answers to the most frequently asked questions. And if you can’t find the information you’re looking for, please contact us!
What does LTL transport mean?
LTL (Less Than Truckload) is a freight transport method that allows shippers to share truck space with other shippers. This means you don’t have to fill an entire truck with your goods. Instead, your items are combined with other shipments to maximize use of loading space and reduce costs. This offers a flexible, cost-effective solution for companies needing to transport goods without the constraints of a full truck.
Why does my carrier apply a fuel surcharge?
A fuel surcharge is applied by carriers to compensate for fluctuations in fuel prices. Fuel costs can vary considerably depending on factors such as global market conditions, taxes, environmental regulations and geopolitical tensions. By including a fuel surcharge, carriers can adjust rates in line with changes in fuel prices, ensuring that transport operations remain financially viable. This surcharge is generally calculated as a percentage of the total cost of transport and is adjusted regularly to reflect current fuel prices. This enables carriers to manage costs efficiently while providing reliable service to their customers.
What types of goods can be transported by LTL?
LTL transport is suitable for a wide range of goods, from consumer goods to construction materials and industrial products. However, there are certain restrictions on the types of goods that can be carried, due to safety, size or regulatory considerations. For example, dangerous goods, extremely heavy or bulky objects, and certain perishable or living materials may require special transport conditions or dedicated services. It is always advisable to check with the carrier to ensure that your goods are eligible for LTL transport and to find out the specific conditions applicable to your shipment.
Do you offer delivery services outside the Montreal area?
Yes, we serve many areas around Montreal, including the North Shore, South Shore, Longueuil, Boucherville, St-Hyacinthe, Drummondville and more. Our coverage varies according to demand – contact us to confirm whether we can deliver to your area.
What are your delivery times for the LTL service?
Our lead times vary according to destination, but we generally offer fast, often same-day, delivery to the areas we serve. We make every effort to ensure punctual and reliable service, even for small volumes.
How do you ensure that the temperature is maintained during transport?
Our trucks are equipped with modern, regularly inspected refrigerated trailers. Temperature is monitored throughout the journey, and we carry out constant checks to ensure that your products remain in ideal conditions, from departure to delivery.
