Why Alpha Trans
The difference between a carrier that shows up and one that doesn’t.
You can get a freight quote from anyone. The question is what happens after you book the load — when the driver is late, the border is backed up, the reefer throws a code, or the receiver changes the appointment window.
That’s where the gap between a good carrier and a budget carrier becomes obvious. The budget carrier gives you a tracking link and a ticket number. Alpha Trans gives you a dispatcher who picks up the phone, knows your load, and fixes the problem before you have to ask.
We’ve been doing this since 2002. Our customers have stayed 10, 15, 20 years because when the freight matters, the carrier matters.
What sets us apart
Seven things you won’t find on most carrier packets.
01
Asset-based, not asset-light
200 company-owned tractors and 300 trailers. We don’t subcontract your freight to someone we found on a load board 20 minutes ago.
02
Family-owned for 23 years
The Saini family started this company in 2002 and still runs it. You’re not dealing with a PE portfolio company optimizing for next quarter’s earnings.
03
24/7 live dispatch
One phone number. A real person answers. Weekends, holidays, 3am. No call tree, no voicemail, no ticket queue.
04
Six border certifications
CT-PAT, FAST, PIP, SmartWay, HAZMAT, CSA. Your freight clears faster with a carrier the border already trusts.
05
$10M liability coverage
Through AIG, valid to February 2027. Plus $300K cargo. Your compliance team won’t have to chase us for a certificate.
06
Bonded in both countries
Canadian and US bonded carrier. In-bond shipments move across the border without delays or third-party bonding arrangements.
07
In-house maintenance
Preventive maintenance on a 15,000 km cycle at our own Brampton shop. Fewer breakdowns, fewer service failures, fewer problems for your supply chain.
