FedEx Freight Canada Enhances Cross-Border Service

FedEx Freight Canada has reduced transit times in more than 500 lanes connecting Toronto and Montreal to dozens of cities and regions in the United States. These service enhancements are designed to help enable cross-border LTL shippers to achieve supply chain improvements. FedEx Freight Canada, a subsidiary of FedEx Freight Corp., provides cross-border and intra-Canada less-than-truckload (LTL) shipping services.

Specific north and southbound cross-border transit-time reductions include:

● Three-day service improved to two-day service between Atlanta and Savannah, Ga., Charlotte, N.C., Charleston, S.C., Birmingham, Ala., and Toronto, Mississauga and Hamilton, Ontario.

● Three-day service reduced to two-day service between Memphis, Tenn., St. Louis and Kansas City, Mo., and Toronto, Mississauga and Hamilton, Ontario.

● Three-day service improved to two-day service between Milwaukee, Rockford, Ill., St. Louis, Mo., and Montreal.

● Four-day service reduced to three-day service between Denver, Houston and other cities in the central U.S. and Montreal.

● Five-day service reduced to four-day service between Los Angeles, Seattle and other points on the West Coast and Montreal.

The company has also expanded its service center network with two additional facility openings in the greater Toronto area, and provides all-points coverage to more than 7,000 cities in 10 provinces as well as trans-border service for shipments to and from the U.S. and other locations.
