Airport Cargo Pickups and Deliveries in Calgary and Edmonton

Airport cargo pickups

Receiving freight by air? WTM can arrange collection from the specified cargo facility and onward delivery to your business, warehouse or other agreed destination.

Before dispatch, we confirm where the shipment is being held, who can release it and whether it is ready for collection. A flight’s arrival time alone does not confirm that cargo is available at the receiving counter.

Deliveries to airport cargo facilities

For outbound freight, we can arrange pickup from your location and delivery to the designated cargo terminal or handling facility. Share the receiving instructions and required handover time so dispatch can plan the ground movement.

The exact facility matters: an airline cargo counter or freight handler may use a different entrance from the passenger terminal. Providing the receiving address and contact helps the driver reach the right place.

Need an after-hours airport pickup or delivery?

Tell us the required time when requesting service. After-hours arrangements depend on driver availability and whether the cargo facility can release or receive your shipment at that time. Dispatch will confirm the plan and quote before the job proceeds.

Match the road service to the cargo

A released carton, a pallet of stock and a large crate need different vehicle and unloading arrangements. Tell us the packed dimensions, total weight and number of handling units. For a destination without a dock, request tailgate service or inside delivery and describe the receiving surface and entrance.

For Calgary or Edmonton cargo collections, use the actual handler’s address and release contact. For onward delivery outside the city, provide the final destination so dispatch can assess coverage and the road-service options. An airport collection does not automatically include an air-freight booking, customs work or restricted-area access.

If the receiver has a fixed appointment, provide that deadline alongside the cargo-ready time. WTM can compare suitable planned transport with a dedicated movement where available. If the cargo release changes, contact dispatch before the vehicle is sent so the collection plan can be revised.

What to send when requesting a quote

• Airport and cargo facility or handling-company name.
• Pickup and delivery addresses.
• Air waybill, cargo reference or release number, if available.
• Requested date, collection window or delivery cutoff.
• Freight description, piece count, dimensions and weight, if known.
• Facility contact details and any collection authorization or receiving instructions.
• Any handling needs, such as tailgate or inside delivery at the final destination.

Send what you have. Our dispatch team can help identify the remaining details needed to arrange the trip.

Confirm release and access before the driver arrives

Airport ground transport must fit the cargo facility’s release and receiving arrangements. Let dispatch know about any outstanding release documents, clearance or facility charges that could affect collection. Restricted-area access or specialist cargo handling must be discussed and confirmed separately.

If your shipment also needs an international air-freight arrangement, see our international air freight overview and contact us to discuss the full movement.

Airport cargo transport questions

Can WTM collect cargo as soon as the flight lands?

Collection starts with the handler confirming that the shipment is released and ready. Flight arrival alone does not mean the freight is available. Send the release reference, cargo location and collection window before dispatch.

Do I give the driver the passenger terminal address?

Use the cargo handler’s collection or receiving address and entrance instructions. Airport cargo facilities may be separate from passenger terminals. Confirm the address against the release paperwork.

Can WTM deliver my shipment to an outbound cargo facility?

Yes, WTM can arrange the road pickup and handover to the designated facility. Provide its receiving cutoff, booking reference, packaged load and contact. Air transport and the facility’s acceptance remain separate from the road booking.

Are evening and weekend cargo collections available?

Request your preferred time. WTM confirms driver availability and the facility must be able to release or receive cargo in that window. Do not assume a flight schedule is the same as cargo-counter opening hours.

One place to manage your ground shipment

Use the WTM Customer Portal to review your quote, manage payment and access available BOLs, PODs and invoices. Customer GPS location updates are available during final delivery while the driver shares location; the last update time helps distinguish a current location from an older reading.

For additional planning, explore pallet and LTL transport or request the complete movement through our shipment quote form. Regular airport collections can be discussed as a recurring arrangement, including the applicable 10% recurring-shipment offer.
