LTL freight
About 1 to 6 pallets · shared trailer
Your pallets ride with other shippers' freight, and you pay for the space you use.
Supreme Trux moves palletized freight across Canada and to and from the United States: LTL, full truckload, sprinter van and temperature-controlled. Tell us where it's going and what it weighs. We reply with a price and a pickup time.
Pick by size and urgency. If you're not sure which one fits, send the details and we'll tell you. Shipping to or from the US? See cross-border trucking between Canada and the USA.
About 1 to 6 pallets · shared trailer
Your pallets ride with other shippers' freight, and you pay for the space you use.
Up to 26 pallets · one shipper
The whole trailer is yours. It loads at your dock and drives straight to the receiver.
About 3 pallets · direct run
One van carries one shipment and makes no stops in between. For freight that can't wait for a trailer to fill.
Chilled · frozen · heated
Freight that has to stay at a set temperature from pickup to delivery, summer or winter.
Ship LTL when you have a few pallets and a flexible delivery day. Book a full truckload when you have ten or more pallets or need the trailer to yourself. Use a sprinter van when a small shipment is urgent. Choose temperature-controlled when the product has a required temperature.
| Service | Typical size | How it moves | Best when |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTL freight | About 1 to 6 pallets | Shares a trailer and is sorted at a terminal | Cost matters more than speed |
| Full truckload | Up to 26 standard pallets in a 53-foot dry van | One trailer, direct from shipper to receiver | The load is large, heavy or fragile |
| Sprinter van | About 3 standard pallets | One dedicated van, driven straight through | A small shipment has a deadline |
| Temperature-controlled | A few pallets to a full trailer | Refrigerated or heated trailer at a set point | The product spoils, melts or freezes |
| Cross-border | Any of the above | Crosses the Canada–US border with an eManifest and your broker's release | The freight is going to or coming from the US |
Pickup and delivery locations, number of pallets, size and weight of each, what the freight is, and when it's ready.
We send a price and a pickup time. Once you approve it, we schedule the truck and the driver arrives with a bill of lading for you to sign.
The receiver signs the proof of delivery when the freight arrives. Ask us for a copy for your records.
Six things: the pickup and delivery postal codes, the number of pallets, the length, width, height and weight of each pallet, what the freight is, the date it's ready, and whether each end has a loading dock. With those we can price the shipment without a second round of questions.
With LTL (less-than-truckload) your pallets share a trailer with other shippers' freight and you pay for the space you use. With full truckload you book the entire trailer and it drives directly from your dock to the receiver. LTL costs less for small shipments. Truckload is faster and involves less handling.
A 53-foot dry van holds 26 standard 48 × 40 inch pallets loaded straight in a single layer, in 13 rows of two. If the freight can be stacked two high, the same floor holds 52. Weight usually limits the load before floor space does.
No, but tell us when you request the quote. Freight picked up or delivered at ground level needs a truck with a liftgate (also called a tailgate) or a forklift on site. Liftgate service is normally an extra charge, and knowing early avoids a failed pickup.
We ship from our base in Vaughan, Ontario to destinations across Canada, and we move freight across the border between Canada and the United States. Send the pickup and delivery postal codes and we confirm the price and timing for that lane.
