Seamless Canada–USA Freight Solutions
Cross Border Canada USA
Cross-border Canada–USA freight service for manufacturers, distributors, retailers, and growers who need compliant, reliable trucking between Canadian provinces and all U.S. states.
Anax Carriers Inc moves FTL and LTL shipments with temperature-controlled options, coordinated customs documentation, and 24/7 dispatch in Pacific Time. We serve Surrey, Delta, Metro Vancouver, and beyond, while accepting bookings nationwide. Transit guidance only, subject to weather, road conditions, and force majeure.
Compliance, Coverage, 24/7 Dispatch
Why Surrey Trusts Our Canada–USA Cross-Border?
Shippers choose Anax Carriers Inc for Canada–USA cross-border moves because we combine compliance discipline with practical trucking know-how. Our dispatch runs 24/7 from British Columbia, so time-critical questions get answered quickly, day or night. We cover Canada and the entire United States, with strong west-to-east experience on BC–Ontario lanes and active BC–Alberta connections that keep freight flowing through seasonal peaks.
Border readiness is where our team stands out. We coordinate with your customs broker and help you verify required documents before pickup: commercial invoice, packing list, HS codes, Power of Attorney, and PARS or PAPS, plus ACE/ACI eManifest when required. Fewer mistakes at origin mean fewer delays at the booth. For sensitive cargo, we offer temperature-controlled options managed by trained drivers who understand food safety and pharmaceutical handling requirements.
Capacity is flexible. Book FTL or LTL, request multi-stop routing, or ask about drop-trailer availability at your site. Cross-dock support at Delta, Calgary, Winnipeg, and Brampton adds resilience when plans change mid-route. We publish realistic guidance only, with service times always subject to weather, road conditions, and force majeure. No hype, just clear commitments we can stand behind.
If your shipping base is in Surrey or Metro Vancouver, you get local pickup backed by national reach. If you are outside those areas, talk to us; we regularly position equipment to match freight where it is needed.
Cross-Border Questions, Clear Answers
What documents do you require?
Before pickup, provide your customs broker contact, commercial invoice, packing list, HS codes, Power of Attorney, and PARS or PAPS references. When required, we also file ACE or ACI eManifest. Correct documents speed cross border shipping and reduce booth delays. Our team reviews details early so exceptions are resolved before the truck moves.
Do you handle customs clearance?
Anax Carriers Inc is not a customs broker. We coordinate closely with your chosen broker and submit ACE or ACI eManifest when required, ensuring entries match shipment data. This partnership approach keeps Canada USA cross border freight moving with fewer holds and cleaner handoffs at origin and destination.
Can you ship temperature controlled?
Yes. For cross-border reefer freight we support frozen at −18°C to −25°C with ±2°C tolerance, chilled at +2°C to +4°C with ±1°C tolerance, and heated at +10°C to +15°C with ±2°C tolerance. We do not offer live telemetry. We do not accept hazmat LTL with food.
What areas do you cover?
We serve Canada and the USA, covering all states. Local pickups are available across Surrey, Delta, and Metro Vancouver, with equipment positioned nationally for outbound or inbound cross-border trucking. If you are outside these areas, contact dispatch; we often reposition to match freight where it is needed.
How do you quote pricing?
Quotes for cross-border trucking are case by case. Factors include lane, FTL or LTL, dimensions, handling, seasonality, and accessorials. Multi-stops are billed per stop, from $100 when on-route and higher off-route. Detention is 2 hours free at pickup and 2 hours free at delivery, then waiting time applies.
Do you offer weekend crossings?
Dispatch operates 24/7 in Pacific Time, so we support weekend departures when documents and appointments are ready. Crossing times depend on lane, weather, customs processing, and facility hours. We provide priority best-effort cross border freight service without guaranteed delivery windows. Talk to us for scheduling options.
How fast can you deliver?
Transit varies by lane, weather, and customs. We publish indicative guidance only, with cross border shipping always subject to road conditions and force majeure. Our 24/7 dispatch and proactive document checks help avoid avoidable delays, and team drivers can be arranged when the move requires priority handling.
Can you handle multi-stop shipments?
Yes. Multi-stop cross border freight is accepted, and every additional stop is billed. Pricing starts from $100 when the stop is along the route and is higher if off-route, depending on location. Standard detention applies, with 2 hours free at pickup and 2 hours free at delivery.
Do you accept hazmat freight?
Not at this time. Hazmat permits are not yet in place, so we do not accept hazardous materials for cross border shipping. No timeline is published. We can review alternatives or separate non-hazmat portions to keep your project moving safely and compliantly.
What proof of delivery options?
For cross border Canada USA moves we provide photo POD and paper POD. eSignature is not specified. If a receiver requires scheduled delivery, we arrange appointments and note names and times on documents, creating a clear audit trail for your records and claims with your broker or insurer.
We export packaged foods from Surrey to several U.S. distributors. Our previous carrier kept missing paperwork, which meant secondary inspections and lost shelf life. Anax Carriers Inc built a checklist with our broker, confirmed HS codes, and filed ACI and ACE correctly. The reefer held temperature the entire trip and the photo POD matched receiver notes. Cross border shipping finally feels predictable, and our spoilage credits dropped to zero.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️I manage a print and packaging plant in Delta. We needed reliable Canada USA cross border trucking for weekly palletized LTL orders into Oregon and California, with frequent delivery appointments. Anax Carriers Inc consolidated pickups, handled PARS and PAPS references, and updated us from dispatch 24/7. The driver arrived with clean BOLs and recorded a paper POD plus photos. Appointment misses stopped, and our customer scorecards improved within two months.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Our pharma project required heated transport from Calgary into the Midwest with strict tolerances. Two prior providers promised tracking apps that never worked. Anax Carriers Inc skipped the hype and focused on execution: correct broker entries, calibrated equipment, and drivers trained on temperature ranges. They documented setpoints and seals, then delivered on time through winter weather. For cross-border temperature controlled freight, their best-effort discipline outperformed every ‘guarantee’ we heard elsewhere.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️We build seasonal displays for big box retailers from Brampton to multiple U.S. regions. The challenge was multi-stop routing with tight windows and fines for late arrivals. Anax Carriers Inc planned the route, priced each extra stop clearly, and managed detention expectations with our warehouses. Photo PODs helped our finance team release invoices faster. Cross border Canada USA distribution now scales without surprises, even during peak promotions.
— Victor Patel
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️A machinery relocation from Winnipeg to Texas needed a last-minute pickup and weekend crossing. I called the hotline and a dispatcher answered immediately. Anax Carriers Inc coordinated with our customs broker, verified commercial invoice details, and positioned a tractor-trailer overnight. They were honest about weather risks and used team drivers for priority handling. Delivery hit the appointment, and our project stayed on schedule. That cross border freight save mattered.
