FAQ — Ottawa
Common questions.
Do you dispatch carriers based in Ottawa or Gatineau?
Yes — both sides of the Ottawa River. We dispatch owner-operators and small carriers from anywhere in the National Capital Region, including Ottawa proper, Kanata, Orleans, Barrhaven, Gatineau, Hull, and Aylmer. Bilingual dispatch support for Quebec-side carriers.
What cross-border lanes do you cover from Ottawa?
Primary cross-border lanes: Ottawa into upstate NY via Ogdensburg or Cornwall-Massena crossings (Watertown, Syracuse, Albany) and onward into the US Northeast. We handle PARS/PAPS submissions and ACE/ACI eManifest with brokers.
What equipment do you dispatch in Ottawa?
Sprinter, cargo van, straight truck, 24-ft and 26-ft straight box, 53-ft dry van, and power-only / tractor. Not currently dispatching reefer, flatbed, step deck, or specialty equipment. Most Ottawa-area dispatch is dry van for federal, commercial, and retail freight.
Can you dispatch lanes into Atlantic Canada from Ottawa?
We can occasionally dispatch lanes into Atlantic Canada (NB, NS, PEI) when broker freight matches. But these aren't our primary lanes — Ottawa-to-Atlantic is a thinner freight market and rates can be unpredictable. We'll be honest with you if your operation depends on consistent Atlantic Canada freight.
Are you a freight broker?
No. Trucc.ca is a freight dispatch service. We are not a licensed freight broker. We do not take possession, custody, or control of freight. All freight contracts are between the broker/shipper and the carrier directly.
