Flexible Shared-Load Freight Service
Less Than Truckload Freight (LTL)
We provide Less Than Truckload Freight (LTL) for shippers who do not need a full trailer yet want reliable coverage across Canada and the USA.
We consolidate compatible freight, route efficiently from Delta and Surrey through hubs in Calgary, Winnipeg, and Brampton, and keep pickup requests open daily until 6:00 PM. Palletised freight, stackable on request, travels with clear photo or paper proof of delivery.
Reliable, Transparent, Metro Vancouver Coverage
LTL Freight Expertise Across BC
Anax Carriers Inc blends regional precision with national reach. We run LTL from our operations hub in Delta, with office support in Surrey and dispatch working 24/7. For fast origin coverage, we pick up within 300 kilometres of Delta and Brampton, and within 100 kilometres of Calgary. Winnipeg links our west to east corridor so your partial loads move without detours or guesswork across BC, Alberta, the Prairies, and Ontario.
We design every shared-load to your real constraints. Standard pallets at 48 x 40 inches fit efficiently; height up to 96 inches is accepted, and we stack only when your freight is truly stackable.
Submit same-day pickup requests by 6:00 PM any day; we confirm windows promptly and communicate clearly. Transit guidance is practical: BC to Ontario about three days, and BC to Alberta next day, always subject to weather, road conditions, and force majeure.
Our LTL service is built for accountability. Photo and paper proof of delivery are available, and accessorials such as liftgate, residential delivery, and appointments are arranged on request and quoted up front.
Insurance is available up to 250,000 per occurrence, and we comply with legal axle limits without publishing a single “max payload” figure. Whether you ship from Surrey, Delta, or anywhere in Metro Vancouver, we cover the entire city and beyond. Contact us even if you sit outside these distances to discuss options.

What Proof Of Delivery Is Provided?
For LTL freight we can capture a photo POD and provide a paper POD. eSignature is not listed. If you need appointment delivery or residential service, request it in advance so we can quote accessorials and plan equipment accordingly.
We had three pallets of packaging that missed our linehaul in Surrey. Anax Carriers Inc arranged an LTL pickup before the 6:00 PM cutoff, combined our freight with another Metro Vancouver shipment, and delivered to our Brampton consignee within the expected three days. The photo POD matched our receiving checklist. Pricing included a quoted liftgate accessorial. This LTL freight Surrey experience was organised, transparent, and stress free.
