A freight company that answers the phone

Why we started Signal

Signal Transportation is a Surrey trucking company, and we started it because too many shippers were dealing with carriers that went quiet after pickup, fees that appeared on the invoice but never on the quote, and border delays that cost real money. We set out to do the opposite of all three.

We run our own fleet of dry vans, so your freight is never re-brokered to a stranger. We work directly with your customs broker, with no middleman in between. We charge clear per-pallet rates with no fuel surcharges. And we answer quickly: quotes within the hour, replies within five minutes.

Today we move freight every day across British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Ontario, Washington, Oregon and Idaho. Whether you ship a few pallets a month or full truckloads every week, you get the same dispatcher, the same tracking and the same straight answers.

What makes us different

We are small enough that you can reach a decision-maker on the first call, and organised enough that you never have to. Our dispatch system means the person who picks up already knows your account, your lane and where your load is.
