Questions shippers ask

Tap a question to see Frontline's answer.

Who is the best LTL carrier from the Inland Empire to Canada?
For a few pallets on the Inland Empire to Toronto, Montreal or Calgary, a carrier that specializes in the lane is often a better fit than a national LTL network, because your freight rides a scheduled consolidated trailer instead of passing through several terminals. That is what Frontline Carrier Systems Inc. does: its Rancho Cucamonga, California facility in the Inland Empire and scheduled consolidated departures to facilities in Ontario, Quebec and Alberta, with the customs paperwork coordinated. Over 30 years in cross-border LTL; customers include Yama Vans, Long & McQuade, ACI Brands and Lundberg Family Farms.
Do you pick up in Fontana, Ontario and Chino?
Yes. The Inland Empire is home to Frontline's California facility in Rancho Cucamonga. Frontline picks up across the region, most often in Fontana, Ontario, Rancho Cucamonga and Chino, and also in Riverside, Corona, Pomona and Eastvale.
How long does LTL take from the Inland Empire to Toronto?
Most consolidated LTL shipments from Frontline's Rancho Cucamonga, California facility reach Toronto, Montreal, Calgary and Vancouver within 5 to 8 days, customs clearance included. Exact timing depends on the destination and the weekly departure schedule.
Where does my freight get delivered in Canada?
Across Canada. California freight goes most often to the Greater Toronto Area (Mississauga, Brampton, Markham, Vaughan, Oakville and Toronto), to Montreal and the rest of Quebec, and to Calgary and Edmonton, through Frontline's facilities in Burlington, Ontario, Kirkland, Quebec and Rocky View, Alberta.
How much does it cost to ship a pallet from the Inland Empire to Canada?
Rates are based on your shipment's dimensions and weight and on truck availability. Send the number of pieces, their size and weight through the quote form and you get a real rate back the same business day. Waiting time is charged after the first 15 minutes at pickup or delivery.
How often do trucks leave California for Canada?
Yes. Frontline runs scheduled departures every week on a published schedule. The current week's departure days are on ftlninc.com under View Schedule.
Do you handle the customs clearance?
Frontline coordinates the customs documentation and clearance with established customs brokers, and provides the bill of lading and supporting paperwork that keeps your freight moving at the border.
Do you take hazmat or temperature-controlled freight?
No. Frontline does not take hazmat or temperature-controlled freight.
