Our Values

Experience Shipped!

We define our service offering as such because of our years of experience in Transportation. We have moved every kind of shipment to and from anywhere around the world. We have learned from our past and have applied these lessons to enhance your experience with us. It’s our know-how that makes the difference and our ability to quickly respond and adjust to everyday challenges that sets us apart. Most importantly, our experience has taught us that being prepared and having strong internal systems guarantee the same outcome every time. We look forward to sharing our experience with you!

Technology

Our online portal allows clients to download POD’s uploaded by our drivers and partner carriers. The portal also provides live tracking and the ability to quote and book new shipments. For all time sensitive and dedicated shipment, our drivers obtain digital signatures at deliveries, confirming goods were received in real time. Most importantly, thanks to our groundbreaking checkpoint system and link to Canada and US Customs, our customers never have to wonder and inquire about the location of their goods.

Carrier selection

Our carrier selection process is rigorous. Our partners are vetted, met in person (or by video conference) and thoroughly checked. We verify safety ratings, past performance and assess their strengths. We also analyse a carrier’s internal systems and adapt to them. Most importantly, we pay our carriers quickly and our team treats our carriers the exact same way we treat our client. In doing so, your shipment is as important to them as it is to us.

I am thrilled to introduce Depart and to convert 15 years of experience in transportation into a full-service transportation company that embodies the vision and the principals I strongly believe in; that relationships and partnerships need to have a strong foundation to succeed. Therefore, it's at the start or departure of a relationship or shipment that success is found. In creating Depart, I wanted to make sure I had all the tools at my disposal to respond quickly and effectively to improve the overall freight experience. Learning from past lessons to introduce solutions for the future. I invite you to join us because all we need is an opportunity, to make a difference.

What is the Point of Sale?

In our business, people rush to onboard a client or to move the first shipment. We take the same approach as moving companies. Think of the point of sale as a “site visit” that moving companies do. We need to get to know you so there are no surprises down the line and so that perhaps, we can find ways to improve or enhance your freight shipping experience. Reach out to us at info@mydepart.com to learn more.

What is the Point of Service?

An internal system that we have developed to assess a partner carrier's strength and workflow so that we may find the most effective way to work with them. Similar to the point of sale with our clients, the point of service ensures that we get to know our partners to avoid any surprises in the future.

How do I track a shipment?

If you are already client and you’ve been given a user and password, go to our home page and click track a shipment using the pro# you were provided at time of booking. It’s that simple.

How do I book a shipment?

We encourage you to use your portal so that we may better serve you. In doing so, we can see your order in real time and avoid any delays or missing information by receiving and re-entering your information into our system.

What is the VIP Board?

We do not put all our loads on public load boards, to make sure our best partners get priority, we have VIP load board on our carrier portal. Its where our carriers can see available shipments and bid on them. This process is more direct and exclusive and allows us to enhance routing for a shipment or a leg of a shipment.

What is a freighT audit?

A freight audit is a free evaluation of your freight spend by getting our experts to evaluate how you are moving your shipments. This service is free. If we cannot add value ourselves, we will refer you to one of our partners who might be a better fit. We believe its good business to share our expertise with you!
