🚛👏It is National Trucking Week. A good week to appreciate how much work goes into a delivery that simply arrives when it should. Drivers, dock crews, mechanics, dispatchers and everyone behind them, thank you!

More to come from us before the week is out.

🚛⛏️We put together a guide on shipping mining supplies and parts by LTL freight across BC and Alberta. It covers what actually goes into getting freight to a mine site: working around shutdown windows, the paperwork for hazardous materials, and reaching camps out along roads like the Stewart-Cassiar and through the Kootenays.

If you ship to a mine site anywhere in Western Canada, it's worth a read: https://tinyurl.com/ymyp7ctz.

Understand the LTL freight process for shipping mining supplies & parts and other equipment in BC and Alberta for reliable delivery.

👏🚛Big congratulations to Bubba Patenaude on hitting his 20-year milestone driving linehaul out of our Surrey terminal. Bubba's rule? "The day it stops being fun is the day I retire." Luckily for us, this legend is still having a blast. Cheers to 20 years, Bubba!🙌

💚🥾Classrooms have sat empty all summer, but Take a Hike's clinicians haven't stopped showing up for the youth they work with. They're in the room alongside teachers during the school year and stay in touch through the break, so the connection built in the classroom holds. We first supported Take a Hike Foundation in 2018, and we're glad to be back.
