Where we run
Flatbed carrier for Milton and Halton shippers
Most of what ships out of Milton is on skids or in bundles, and most of it rides dry in a Conestoga. The Fission Logistics yard is a short run east on the 401 in Mississauga, and we haul steel, building products and machinery out of Milton on regular runs.
What moves in Milton
Milton's industrial parks along the 401 hold manufacturers, steel fabricators, building product plants and distribution centres. Long steel the crane picks from the top goes on an open flatbed, and heavy Ontario loads go on a multi axle.

| Structural steel and fabricated pieces | Open flatbed or Conestoga |
| Machinery and crated equipment | Step deck, double drop, Conestoga |

Questions shippers ask
How often do you pick up in Milton?
Regularly. Milton sits between our yard and Kitchener and Cambridge, so our trucks pass through it.
Can you do same day in Milton?
Often, when a truck is close, but never guaranteed. Call dispatch with the dock and the load.
Can you take Milton freight to Quebec or Western Canada?
Yes. We run Quebec and Western Canada as far as Vancouver on our own trucks. A heavy Quebec load can go on a 4 axle.
