Port of Montreal — Viau
The terminal is practically next door. Marine imports come off ahead of the last free day, and we watch the availability status so you never pay demurrage on a box that was ready.

The Viau Advantage
We’re already at the gate.
In drayage, geography is the product. Our yard at 2625 Viau sits at the Port of Montreal’s doorstep, a few minutes from the Viau and Maisonneuve gates, with direct highway runs to CN Taschereau and CP Lachine. Fewer empty kilometres, faster container turns, and less demurrage exposure on your file.
~7MIN
Port of Montreal — Maisonneuve
Export cut-offs are managed backwards from the vessel, not forwards from the pickup — the loaded box is through the gate with time to spare.
~25MIN
CN Taschereau Yard
Daily rail shuttles, including off-peak gate windows when the queue is shortest.
~30MIN
CP Lachine
Scheduled runs to the CP intermodal ramp, with empties returned on time so per-diem never quietly runs on a box we forgot.

Why owned chassis matter
Pool chassis vs. Proud chassis.
Most delays in drayage are not on the road. They are at the gate, waiting for equipment. We took that variable out.
Pool chassis Industry default
- Driver waits at the gate for whatever unit is available
- Condition unknown until the box is already on it
- Split chassis fee appears as its own line on every invoice
- Repositioning and roadability issues become your problem
Proud-owned How we run
- Chassis is under the tractor before we reach the gate
- Maintained by our own shop — inspected before every pull
- One line, one invoice — no chassis-split surprise
- The right type for the box: 20′, 40′, B-train, tri-axle, extendable
How It Moves
Four steps, terminal gate to proof of delivery.
A process you can follow — and your customer can count on.
STEP 01
Quote & book
Send us the container number, terminal and delivery postal code. You get a firm rate, not a range.
STEP 02
Appointment & pickup
We book the window, watch the availability date, and pull the box before demurrage starts running.
STEP 03
Delivery
A named driver, live updates, and a dispatcher who answers in French or English.
STEP 04
Empty return & POD
We take the empty back, close the file, and send proof of delivery the same day.
