If you ship freight from Vancouver to Toronto, or across the border from Los Angeles to Vancouver—a full truckload, or a single pallet—LTL Freight Shipping has been CSA’s specialty since 1986.
Our high-volume Surrey, BC based distribution centre handles more than 10 million pounds in freight shipments per month to and from Vancouver and the region!
When you make the decision to transport pallets or truckloads of goods, you’re trusting your cargo to the freight company you select.
At CSA Transportation, we understand that the safe, timely, and reliable delivery of your shipment is of utmost importance to you. Whether it’s a standard pallet size that that requires flexible pricing and delivery options, or a truckload of freight that must be delivered directly and within a short time-frame, knowing your cargo is in trustworthy hands is always the top priority.
That’s why our motivated professionals are committed to making CSA Transportation a leading trucking company in Vancouver, and establishing our business as the go-to resource for highly-competitive, consistent, and superior delivery.
In addition to establishing honorable, accountable relationships with the clients we serve, we also place particular emphasis on providing a range of transportation services like US domestic and cross-border LTL shipping with flexible service options at highly competitive prices our customers appreciate.
As one of the leading trucking companies in Vancouver, we know that nothing impacts a customer’s experience more than missing deliveries, incurring wait time fees or dead call fees.
That’s why we offer freight appointments.
Freight appointments ensure that your cargo is delivered within a specific time window, providing you with a predictable schedule you can depend on.
Additionally, clients who opt for appointment deliveries can request to receive notification (via email or telephone) when their shipment is about to be dropped off.
You’ll love how convenient it is letting our trained specialists professionally coordinate the delivery of your goods!
Not all transportation companies in Los Angeles have the ability to offer same day pickup— but for CSA Transportation, it’s not a problem.
We offer same day pickups, as long as your shipment is confirmed by 2pm (origin time).
If a prompt, hassle-free delivery experience is what you’re looking for, CSA Transportation can make it happen.
We encourage you to get in touch with our customer experience team if you have any questions regarding same day pickup.
Does your delivery require a power-operated tailgate to reach ground level? If so, CSA Transportation is the right Vancouver trucking company for you.
We have multiple trucks that are outfitted with liftgate devices, making it easier to deliver heavy shipments to locations without a loading dock.
Just let us know in advance that your order may require a liftgate and we’ll make every effort to accommodate your needs.
At CSA Transportation, we believe our customers should be constantly in-the-loop regarding the whereabouts of their shipments. That’s why we offer client portal access. This systems will show clients the actual delivery date and will display status notes for when a delivery has been delayed due to extreme weather, border security, or other unexpected events.
We know that each shipment we transport is of great importance, and we do not take our responsibility as your chosen freight carrier lightly.
When unanticipated delays occur, you can be sure that CSA Transportation will keep you informed.
Simply visit our online tracking portal to get started.
When deciding between freight companies in Vancouver, it’s imperative to consider the level of insurance being provided.
At CSA Transportation, we offer insurance policies to ensure that each of our clients receives the level of coverage that works for them.
Whether it’s our standard liability insurance to cover the replacement cost of your goods, or our upgraded cargo insurance, which brings added peace of mind— we’ll help you find the ideal coverage for your needs.
Let’s face it— when it comes to choosing a carrier, price rates are a primary concern. And at CSA Transportation, we get it.
Thus, we made the decision to provide simplified pallet shipping rates.
With our by-the-pallet pricing, our customers pay a flat rate, regardless of what type of commodity they are shipping.
Many of our clients appreciate this method of pricing since it makes shipments easier to visualize and place a value on.
If you would like to benefit from the convenience of by-the-pallet pricing, contact one of our customer service representatives today. We’re always ready to help find you the best possible rate.

I have 4 loads with your Vancouver branch over the next few days. I wanted to email the head office directly just to point out how impressed I have been with the patience and cooperation from one of your members in that branch. I have been a pretty big pain I admit. I have changed appointments, moved pick-ups, called several times a day, and your customer service representative has always been extremely friendly and amazingly helpful.
In my business, having a person like this to deal with is a pleasure. Thank you.
Chris H.Carrier Procurement Rep, 3rd Party Logistics Provider
I found CSA Transportation a great company to work with. Their customer service team is very knowledgeable and helpful. They are quick to resolve any of my issues. I will continue to use CSA Transportation as my primary carrier to Canada. Thank you for all your help.
Marcus C.Shipping Department, Office Systems & Furniture Distributor
I would like to thank CSA for the excellent service we have received over the past years. Your sales rep, John has kept us all on an even keel. He has become our friend, and the main reason we are and will stay with CSA!
Dealing with Jason in the Richmond terminal, before his move to Calgary, was always a joy, he does his absolute best to give us excellent service in a timely manner. Your Toronto terminal is also super and excellent to deal with. Thanks from all of us.
Judi N.Office Manager, Digital Imaging Product Supplier
We have used the services of CSA Transportation since 2002 and have no hesitation in recommending them as an excellent freight carrier. They have an outstanding commitment to customer service and have always done their best to meet our request in a timely manner. As a wholesale distribution company specializing in organic and natural food products, it is important to us to know our products will be handled carefully and in a clean environment at all times. CSA Transportation has supplied us with that service consistently over the years.
Donna H.Logistics Manager, Major Food Distributor
Professionally I have dealt with CSA transportation since 2007. When I started working for a new company I was excited to learn that we were just starting up with CSA as a preferred carrier of goods. We are going into our third year of business and every opportunity for anything out of our ordinary pickups are given to CSA first to quote.
Recently a program has been set up by CSA for an automated email to be sent to me when product is picked up from a supplier and again when it is delivered to us. This is an excellent tool that saves me a lot of time and hassle. The support staff is excellent to work with and I would recommend them to my peers.
Jackie W.Materials, Inventory, & Warehouse Control Manager, Spa Manufacturing Company
I sincerely appreciate all of CSA for your kindness, customer service, and the way you cope with customers. For me it feels like I have known you people for years. Hope our very friendly relations remain and only get better and better.
Bijan M.Owner, 3rd Party Logistics Provider
I have done business with CSA for over 12 years. This company performs magic for us time and time again. Our freight is always time sensitive as we are in the Bridge and High Iron industry. Their pricing has shown to be very competitive so I see no reason to shop my rates. The freight industry is full of competitors that promise the world and deliver the bad news after you release them your freight.
If results are what you require instead of broken promises, go with the best. Use CSA Transportation.
Norm U.General Manager, Manufacturer of Cold-Formed Steel Products
Having worked with CSA Transportation since 2012, the commitment they have given our company has been outstanding, dealing with a highly dynamic market where flexibility and reactions to sustain timely service into all of North America, for our customers’ needs has been CSA’s strength for us. CSA has been loyal to ensure we get the very best of what they offer; competitive pricing, delivery expectations, and support for all of our needs are met with enthusiasm and success. Thank you CSA for helping our company grow with your assistance and service, and we look forward to our continued success.
