Lethbridge's Premier
Hotshot Service
As your local Lethbridge hotshot delivery experts, we revolutionize urgent freight delivery across Southern Alberta with intimate knowledge of every route from the Oldman River valley to the agricultural heartlands of Taber and Picture Butte. From oil & gas equipment destined for remote drilling sites to construction materials for the growing developments in West Lethbridge, our artistic approach to logistics ensures your critical shipments arrive with precision and local expertise.
What is Hotshot Delivery?
Hotshot delivery represents the pinnacle of expedited freight transportation, utilizing specialized medium-duty trucks and trailers to transport time-sensitive cargo across Southern Alberta. Unlike traditional freight services that prioritize full-trailer efficiency, our hotshot operations deploy pickup trucks with flatbed, gooseneck, or box trailers for loads under 18,000 pounds, enabling rapid deployment without the constraints of conventional logistics networks.
Originating from Alberta's oil and gas industry in the late 1970s, hotshot delivery emerged when drilling operations required immediate equipment replacements to prevent costly downtime. Today, this specialized service has evolved into a comprehensive logistics solution serving construction, manufacturing, agriculture, and emergency response sectors across Lethbridge and the broader Southern Alberta region.

Specialized Services for Southern Alberta
As Lethbridge locals who know every corner of our city—from the industrial zones of Churchill Industrial Park to the growing communities of West Lethbridge like Copperwood and The Crossings—we understand the unique logistical challenges facing Southern Alberta businesses. Whether you're in the established neighborhoods of Fairmont Park or the newer developments in Southbrook, our comprehensive hotshot delivery services are designed to serve every corner of our region with the precision and local expertise that only comes from years of navigating these roads.
Courier service
Specializing in rapid-response transport across Southern Alberta's 200,000+ km² service area, we prioritize deliveries where minutes matter. Our fleet deploys dynamically to serve agriculture, oil & gas, and construction sectors, using predictive analytics to bypass highway closures and seasonal bottlenecks from Crowsnest Pass to the Saskatchewan border. Real-time rerouting around Prairie storms, temperature-controlled compartments for pharmaceutical transport, and emergency after-hours protocols ensure critical shipments reach their destination precisely when needed.
Trucking company
When oversized oilfield machinery or perishable agri-products demand urgent transport, our hotshot division operates with military-grade precision. Engineered for Southern Alberta's heavy industries, our specialized flatbeds handle 50,000+ lb loads while H2S-certified drivers navigate energy sector safety zones with GPS-optimized routes. We pre-stage equipment near high-demand zones like irrigation districts during planting season, slashing response times when pivot systems fail or fertilizer shipments delay.
Logistics service
Transforming Southern Alberta's distribution challenges into competitive advantages, our logistics arm orchestrates seamless flow from warehouse to worksite. For agribusinesses, we implement grain shuttle optimization systems reducing elevator wait times by 57%, while oil & gas clients leverage our modular warehousing near major drill sites with just-in-time inventory solutions. Core innovations include multi-modal coordination combining CPKC rail spurs with local trucking, AI-driven demand forecasting for regional seed surges, and cross-docking facilities slashing handling costs.
Freight forwarding service
Navigating international borders for Alberta's exporters requires mastery of cross-border nuances, from USDA phytosanitary rules for Canola shipments to NAFTA origin documentation for machinery. Our freight forwarding division anchors operations in Lethbridge with strategic partnerships extending globally via Calgary/Edmonton air cargo hubs. Key differentiators include in-house customs brokers resolving CBSA holds within hours, NRI compliance programs for U.S. farm equipment dealers, and drayage coordination avoiding Calgary depot fees.
