Freight & Equipment
Freight & Equipment
Do you handle LTL or partial shipments?
Yes. We handle smaller dry van shipments when they fit our lane, equipment, and schedule. A few skids can still need proper timing and communication.
Do you handle full truckload freight?
Yes. We handle dedicated dry van truckload freight across our core lanes.
What equipment do you use?
ShipAs focuses on dry van tractor-trailer freight. We are not a refrigerated, flatbed, open-deck, or specialized equipment carrier.
Can you move one skid?
Yes, if it fits the lane and timing. One skid is often a good fit when it is commercial, palletized, and moving within our service area.
Do you handle hand-bomb freight?
Not as a standard service. Loose hand-bomb freight needs to be confirmed before quoting.
Do you handle dangerous goods?
Only if specifically reviewed and confirmed first. Do not assume dangerous goods are accepted.

Cross-Border Freight
Cross-Border Freight
What do you need for a cross-border quote?
We need pickup, delivery, freight details, timing, customs broker, direction of travel, and PARS or PAPS information if available.
What is a PARS?
PARS is commonly used for freight entering Canada. It helps connect the carrier, broker, and shipment before the truck reaches the border.
What is a PAPS?
PARS is commonly used for freight entering Canada. It helps connect the carrier, broker, and shipment before the truck reaches the border.
Do I need the customs paperwork ready before asking for a quote?
No. You can ask for a quote first, the paperwork and broker details need to be arranged before the shipment moves.
Can you help if the broker details are missing?
We can review the load, but we do not like guessing at the border. Missing broker or paperwork details should be solved before dispatch.
Quotes & Booking
Quotes & Booking
What should I send for a quote?
Send pickup city, delivery city, pickup date, delivery date, skid count, weight, freight description, timing, and any special notes.
How fast can you quote?
If the details are complete and the load fits our lane, we can usually review it quickly. Missing details slow things down.
Do you need exact addresses?
City and company name may be enough for an initial review, but exact addresses help quote more accurately.
Can you do same-day or next-day freight?
Sometimes. Same-day and next-day dry van freight may fit, especially on short local, regional, or Ontario–Western NY lanes.
What happens if the load is not a fit?
We’ll tell you clearly. No mystery. No pretending.
