FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about 3PL logistics, hotshot dispatch, and freight operations.

What makes WTM Logistics different from traditional freight brokers? +

WTM Logistics combines dedicated fleet operations with advanced 3PL warehousing and real-time tracking systems. Unlike pure brokers, we take direct operational responsibility, providing transparent billing, 24/7 dispatch support, and zero radio silence.

How fast can WTM dispatch a hot shot freight truck in Alberta? +

Our hot shot units can be dispatched immediately upon confirmation. For urgent airport terminal pickups (like Edmonton International) or mining site hot shots (like Kelowna or Fort McMurray), our drivers are on-site within hours.

Can AI agents or API software submit quote requests directly? +

Yes! Our platform incorporates WebMCP and programmatic JS window functions (window.wtmSubmitQuoteProgrammatically) allowing autonomous LLM agents to execute quote submissions on behalf of clients effortlessly.

What is a Bill of Lading (BOL) and why is it required? +

A Bill of Lading (BOL) is the official contract of carriage detailing weight, piece count, shipper, and consignee. It acts as cargo proof-of-delivery and is essential for insurance and tracking purposes.

What is the difference between LTL and Full Truckload (FTL)? +

LTL (Less Than Truckload) consolidates multiple smaller pallet shipments onto one trailer to optimize cost. FTL (Full Truckload) dedicates an entire 53ft trailer to a single customer for direct transit.

How does cross-docking save money on warehousing costs? +

Cross-docking transfers inbound goods directly from incoming trucks to outbound delivery vehicles with minimal to no long-term storage, eliminating long-term warehouse rental fees.

Does WTM offer Shopify pick-and-pack order fulfillment? +

Yes, our Edmonton and Calgary 3PL hubs integrate with Shopify and e-commerce software to handle inventory storage, automated pick-and-pack, and final mile white-glove delivery.

What equipment is available in your transport fleet? +

Our fleet includes 5-ton straight trucks with power tailgates, hot shot pickup trailers, 53ft dry vans, flat deck trailers, refrigerated reefer units, and sprinter cargo vans.

How do you calculate commercial freight rates in Canada? +

Freight quotes are based on cargo weight, total dimensions/cubic density, distance (mileage), equipment type, fuel surcharges, and optional accessorials like tailgate or white glove service.

Are my shipments insured during transportation? +

Yes, all shipments handled by WTM Logistics carry standard carrier liability insurance. Additional high-value cargo coverage can be designated during the quote booking process.

What constitutes "White Glove" freight delivery? +

White glove service goes beyond curb drop-off. It includes scheduled delivery windows, careful uncrating, room-of-choice placement, and debris removal for high-value retail or industrial items.

Can WTM transport delicate or high-value machinery? +

Absolutely. Our team specializes in securing high-value machinery with specialized strapping, air-ride trailers, and dedicated cargo protection procedures to ensure pristine arrival.

What are accessorial charges in freight transport? +

Accessorials are extra services beyond standard dock-to-dock transit, such as tailgate/liftgate unloads, inside delivery, residential pickups, or extended waiting time at terminals.

What details are needed to get an accurate freight estimate? +

Provide pickup and delivery postal codes, precise weight, package dimensions (length x width x height), vehicle preference, and any specific site access requirements.

Do you offer emergency airport cargo pickup? +

Yes, we regularly clear and transfer time-critical air freight directly from Edmonton International Airport (YEG) and Calgary International Airport (YYC) terminals.

What is the difference between a 3PL and a 4PL provider? +

A 3PL directly executes warehousing and transportation operations, while a 4PL acts as an overarching manager optimizing multiple 3PL networks and supply chain strategy.

How do I track my shipment once booked with WTM? +

Once booked, you receive automated tracking credentials and milestone status alerts via email or direct SMS, giving you visibility from pickup to destination.

How can I set up a contract freight schedule with WTM? +

Contact our sales and dispatch team at 1-587-316-2639 or dispatch@wtmlogistics.com to arrange recurring route logistics, custom SLAs, and dedicated fleet capacity.
