Complex industrial freight planning

Project cargo logistics in Canada for freight with more moving parts

Coordinate eligible machinery, fabricated components and industrial project freight through a documented plan for equipment, routing, loading, timing and site communication.

Project cargo often involves non-routine dimensions, multiple suppliers or firm site milestones. Early technical information helps expose constraints before equipment is committed.

Frequently asked questions

Answers about project cargo logistics Canada.

What is considered project cargo?

It generally includes complex, high-value, oversized or schedule-sensitive freight requiring more planning than routine transport.

When should planning begin?

As early as possible, especially when permits, escorts, route surveys, cranes or coordinated site work may be required.

Which trailers can be used?

Flatbed, step deck, double drop and other specialized configurations are considered after cargo and route details are verified.

Can you coordinate multiple shipments?

Eligible phased or multi-load projects can be organized around a shared schedule and communication plan.

Who supplies cargo drawings?

The shipper or manufacturer should provide accurate technical documentation needed to evaluate the movement.
