So you can breathe deeply and relax knowing ET Transport drivers, who have an average of 8.5 years of experience in the transportation industry, will be the ultimate guardians of your HAZMAT on their way to Canada.
4. Our Transport Fleet is Well-Equipped
Of course, to transport temperature-controlled HAZMAT to Canada, it will be necessary to have a fleet of vehicles with the equipment required to guarantee the safety of your cargo and temperature control on the road.
At ET Transport, our fleet of trucks include the following:
- Heated vans
- Refrigerated vans
- High cube vans
- Multi-axle vans
- Vented vans
Among others, that can be adapted onto short or large trailers, according to the characteristics of your cargo (even for heavy loads).
5. We Use Proper Packaging for Each Load
Packaging is the first step to ensure a safe load.
At ET Transport, we have different packaging models to identify and protect HAZMAT during their temperature-controlled shipments:
- Corrugated boxes for cargo protection.
- Foam cooler and thermal bubble wrap for cargo insulation.
- Bubble wrap and packing peanuts for cargo cushioning.
- Proper labels for cargo identification.
6. Delivery Time Is Not a Problem for Us
According to Deloitte, more than 40% of CFOs say supply chain delays have increased their companies’ costs by 5% or more in 2021. This statistic shows that delays don’t only affect your company’s schedules, but it directly impacts negatively in your business finances.
We know this, and our mission is to keep innovating our service, so you experience the most accurate and reliable delivery time in each shipment.
Don’t believe us? We have a record of 98% deliveries on time!
7. We’re a Bonded Carrier
Your company needs more than a provider that can deliver cargo across Canada. It needs an experienced logistics partner who knows the territory and can increase your company’s reach.
ET Transport is a Canadian-based company with 2 locations in the provinces of Ontario & New Brunswick, but that’s not all.
We’re a bonded carrier certified by the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) and the US Customs & Border Protection. Your HAZMAT can be securely moved across both countries, with all legal and customs compliance.
