What Is Freight Shipping? A Complete Guide for Western Canada

Image: Freight shipping is the commercial transportation of goods, cargo, and commodities by truck, rail, air, or a combination of these modes. In Western Canada — Alberta, Eastern BC, and the Northwest Territories — freight shipping primarily moves by truck along major highways like the QEII, Highway 43, the Alaska Highway, and the Crowsnest Highway. WTM Logistics provides freight shipping through its freight transport service. According to Statistics Canada, the trucking industry moves over 60% of Canada’s domestic freight by value, making it the backbone of Western Canadian supply chains. What are the main types of freight shipping? LTL (Less-Than-Truckload) — Multiple shippers’ pallets share trailer space. You pay only for the space you use. Learn about LTL freight service. FTL (Full Truckload) — One shipper books the entire trailer exclusively. Ideal for large volumes or freight requiring dedicated transport. Expedited — Priority transit for time-sensitive shipments when standard windows are too slow. Hotshot — Point-to-point urgent delivery with zero consolidation and no terminal delays. See hotshot trucking. Flat Deck — Open-deck transport for oversize cargo that cannot fit in enclosed trailers. See flat deck and dry van service. How does freight shipping work? Freight is picked up from the shipper, transported along a route, and delivered to the consignee. WTM coordinates every step with real-time GPS tracking and proof of delivery. Frequently Asked Questions What is the difference between LTL and FTL? LTL shares trailer space with other shippers; FTL books the entire trailer exclusively. WTM provides both options. How much does freight shipping cost? Freight costs depend on distance, weight, dimensions, freight class, and service level. Contact dispatch at 587-316-2639 for a quote. Is freight shipping the same as courier service? Freight typically handles larger palletized shipments while courier service handles parcels and documents. WTM provides both.
