Transportation & Freight Services Across Canada
Moving freight on time, on budget, and without damage across a country that's 7,800 km wide — that's what we do.
Mikhaiel Logistics manages transportation for enterprise brands that ship millions of units every year. We coordinate full truckload (FTL), less-than-truckload (LTL), dedicated fleet, and white-glove delivery across our six-facility network. For a single major pet product manufacturer alone, we manage 70-75% of their Canadian transport.
Our Transportation Capabilities
Full Truckload (FTL)
For clients shipping enough volume to fill a trailer — 42,000+ lbs or full cube. Route optimization, carrier selection, load planning, and appointment scheduling. We run 14 loads per week for a single retail client alone.
Less-Than-Truckload (LTL)
Consolidating smaller shipments into cost-efficient loads. We use our Belleville, Calgary, and Montreal facilities as consolidation points — combining freight into full truckloads at FTL rates.
Dedicated Fleet & Contract Carriage
Guaranteed capacity for clients with consistent, predictable volumes. No scrambling for trucks during peak season. No surge pricing.
White-Glove & Final-Mile Delivery
Retail store deliveries requiring inside placement, scheduled windows, and proof of delivery. Our Oakville team handles white-glove deliveries across the GTA.
Cross-Border Canada/US
Cross-border freight management with customs documentation, broker coordination, and seamless border crossing logistics.
How Our Transportation Management Works
Load Planning
We review orders, consolidation opportunities, and delivery schedules to build loads that maximize trailer utilization and minimize cost per unit.
Carrier Selection
We select carriers based on lane, service level, equipment requirements, and track record. We work with carriers we know and trust.
Dispatch & Tracking
Pickup scheduling, driver communication, and in-transit tracking. You get visibility without chasing anyone.
Delivery & POD
Delivery confirmation, proof of delivery documentation, and exception management — handled before it becomes your problem.
Freight Audit & Cost Management
We review carrier invoices, catch billing errors, and continuously look for rate optimization opportunities.

The Mikhaiel Approach to Freight
Integrated, not outsourced.
Our transportation team sits in the same building as our warehouse team. That integration eliminates communication gaps.
We find savings.
Freight is usually the biggest cost in a supply chain. We actively look for consolidation opportunities, rate reductions, and routing changes.
Real relationships with carriers.
We build long-term relationships with reliable carriers. Our loads get covered — even during peak season — because carriers prioritize shippers they trust.
Fast problem resolution.
When freight problems happen, our team reroutes, finds backup capacity, and keeps your delivery commitment intact.
Frequently Asked Questions
We operate a mix of owned/dedicated equipment and contracted carrier capacity. For white-glove GTA deliveries, we use our own fleet. For cross-country FTL and LTL, we use our established carrier network.
