Our modern fleet of Volvo & Peterbilt power units minimizes downtime
Keeping our fleet up to date has proven to be of paramount importance to the safety of our operation, security of our customers’ freight and on-time performance. Our late-model Volvo & Peterbilt fleet ranges from brand new to 3 years old. We also turn our trailer fleet every 5 years. We love getting customer comments on our distinctive, modern fleet as we deliver their goods throughout Canada and the USA.
New equipment and regular maintenance
Along with operating a modern fleet, we have a strict maintenance schedule to ensure virtually no down time. Our drivers can be away a couple of weeks at a time on West coast runs. We do everything in our power to keep them safe on the highways we travel. Our drivers are a critical part of our growing family and valued partner in our performance promise to our customers.
