About MediTransport

A Quebec-born container trucking company — founded 2023 in Lasalle with one focus: moving containers better than anyone in the Montreal market.

Our Story

Built for Container Transport.

MediTransport was founded in 2023 in Lasalle, Quebec — right in the heart of Montreal’s logistics corridor. Our founders identified a clear gap in the market: importers and freight forwarders needed a container trucking partner 100% focused on this one job.

We built MTS from the ground up around containers: port-certified drivers, our own fleet and chassis, digital-first operations, and direct access to every major Montreal terminal.

Today we serve importers, exporters, freight forwarders, shipping lines, and 3PLs across Quebec and Ontario — handling every container movement with precision, transparency, and zero excuses.

What Is Intermodal Trucking?

Guide

Intermodal trucking is the road leg of a multi-mode freight journey. Your container is loaded once and moves by vessel, rail, and truck without the goods ever being touched. The truck — a tractor pulling a chassis with twist-locks — handles the critical first and last mile between port terminals and your facility.

The Container – Chassis – Truck System

A standard ISO container (20′, 40′, or 45′) sits on a chassis — a skeletal trailer with twist-locks at each corner securing the container. The tractor hooks to the chassis and hauls the load. At destination, a crane or reach-stacker lifts the container off for storage or onward movement by rail or ship.

Why Drayage Is the Critical Link

The road leg — drayage — is where most supply chain disruptions happen. A delayed pickup, a driver without terminal credentials, or a missed rail appointment cascades through the entire chain. MediTransport solves this: port-certified drivers, own chassis fleet, live GPS on every move.

Tips January 2025

How to Avoid Demurrage Fees

Tips

Demurrage is charged when your container sits at the port terminal beyond the free time allowance — typically 4 to 7 days at Montreal. Fees accumulate daily and can reach $150–$250+ per container per day. With proper planning, demurrage is almost entirely avoidable.

5 Ways to Avoid Demurrage

1. Book your drayage trucker BEFORE the vessel arrives. 2. Monitor vessel arrival closely — any delay eats into free time. 3. Use a port-certified trucker with active terminal credentials. 4. Have customs clearance initiated before vessel arrival. 5. Respond immediately when your shipping line issues an availability notice.

MediTransport’s Demurrage Record

Since founding in 2023, MediTransport has achieved $0 client demurrage charges. We proactively monitor vessel arrivals, alert clients the moment containers are available, and schedule pickups before free time expires — every time.

Quebec–Ontario Container Moves

Guide

The Quebec–Ontario corridor is Canada’s busiest freight route. Moving a container from Montreal to Toronto requires a carrier licensed for interprovincial operations in both provinces, with proper documentation and compliance at each step.

What Documentation Is Required?

For a QC–ON container move you need: a valid Bill of Lading, commercial invoice for the cargo, and a carrier with active interprovincial operating authority in both QC and ON. MediTransport handles all carrier documentation — you only provide the cargo paperwork.

Based in Lasalle — On the Corridor

Our Lasalle depot positions us perfectly for the Montreal–Toronto corridor. We run this route regularly with GPS-tracked trucks, live dispatch, and the same on-time reliability as all our local moves.

Montreal Port Terminals Explained

Industry

The Port of Montreal operates through four main container terminals. Each handles different shipping lines and cargo types with its own gate procedures and operating hours. Using a trucker with active credentials at your specific terminal is critical to fast, cost-free pickup.

The Four Terminals

Termont handles the largest container volume and serves the major shipping alliances. MGT (Montreal Gateway Terminals) is import-heavy with several major liner services. Racine Terminal handles containers alongside breakbulk cargo. Cast Terminal serves specific liner routes. MediTransport has active gate access at all four.

MediTransport: Certified at All Four

No matter which terminal your container arrives at, MediTransport can pick it up the same day it becomes available. Our drivers hold active credentials at Termont, MGT, Racine, and Cast — zero wait time for gate authorization on any move.

Import Container Cycle: Step by Step

Guide

From vessel arrival to delivery at your facility, a Montreal import container move follows a well-defined sequence. Understanding each step helps you prepare documentation on time, avoid delays, and prevent demurrage charges.

The 6 Steps

Step 1: Vessel arrives at Port of Montreal. Step 2: Container discharged, customs entry filed by your broker. Step 3: Container in terminal yard awaiting customs release. Step 4: Shipping line issues availability notice — free time begins. Step 5: MediTransport driver picks up container on chassis at terminal gate, GPS active. Step 6: Container delivered to your facility, digital Proof of Delivery issued immediately.

Critical Timing Tip

Book your drayage company before the vessel arrives. The faster you respond to the Step 4 availability notice, the more free time you preserve — every day saved is $75–$250 in your pocket.

Free time4–7 days
