A classic example of our industry-leading service comes into focus when you look at the Toronto to Los Angeles lane, some 2,200 miles apart. Despite that vast distance, we routinely transport freight between the 2 points in as little as 2 days, and no more than 4 days, dependent on the day of the week the freight picks up.
