For the second time in less than a year, UPS Freight, the heavy freight arm of UPS (NYSE: UPS), has improved transit times from a key western Canadian market to cities in the United States.
The transit time enhancements cover 181 lanes from Vancouver to U.S. cities in the Midwest and Northeast and generally reduce UPS-established transit times by at least one full day.
"UPS Freight continues to look for ways to support the Canadian business community, specifically to simplify the movement of goods with it's largest trading partner, the U.S.," said Rick Smith, director, UPS Ground Freight.
Since 2009, UPS Freight has reduced transit times on more than 1,200 lanes running between Canada and the U.S. Last November, UPS Freight announced a host of improved transit times affecting shipments moving from U.S. cities to Calgary and Edmonton.
UPS Freight shipments moving across the border under the company's current 525 Tariff are covered by a no-fee delivery guarantee. In addition, UPS customers can manage, track and process both their small package and LTL shipments through the same WorldShip and Quantum View Manage technology, creating operating efficiencies for their business.
UPS Freight, a leading truckload service provider, serves customers throughout North America, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Guam and the U.S. Virgin Islands. For more information, visit upsfreight.com.
