What We Do
Flatbed Services in Ontario & Quebec
Six ways we move freight — all on quad-axle flatbed equipment, all within Ontario and Quebec.
Flatbed LTL & Partial Loads
Not enough freight to fill a trailer? We combine partial flatbed loads on the same lane so you pay for the deck space you use instead of the whole trailer.
Oversize & Wide Loads
Permitted oversize transport within Ontario and Quebec. Anything over 2.6 m wide or 4.15 m high needs a provincial permit — we arrange the permits, flags, signage and escorts required for the route.
Tarped Loads & Securement
Weather-sensitive freight gets tarped and strapped properly — chains, binders, edge protectors, coil racks. Every load is secured to National Safety Code Standard 10 before the wheels turn.
Dedicated & Contract Lanes
Shipping the same lane every week? We'll assign trucks to a recurring schedule so you get consistent capacity and predictable pricing instead of chasing the spot market.
Construction & Steel Hauling
Job-site delivery for structural steel, rebar, beams, precast, lumber packages and roofing loads — including sites with tight windows and limited unloading access.
Who We Haul For
Industries We Serve
Flatbed freight covers anything that can't go in a dry van. These are the shippers we move most often.
Steel & Metals
Structural steel, beams, plate, rebar, coils, pipe and tubing to fabricators and job sites.
Lumber & Building Products
Lumber packages, engineered wood, drywall, siding and roofing bundles — tarped when the weather calls for it.
Construction & Concrete
Precast, forms, scaffolding, aggregates in bulk bags and general site material.
Machinery & Equipment
Industrial machines, generators, compressors and plant equipment, including permitted oversize pieces.
Manufacturing
Crated goods, fabricated assemblies and plant-to-plant transfers between Ontario and Quebec.
Agricultural Equipment
Tractors, implements and farm machinery moved between dealers, farms and auctions.
Energy & Utilities
Poles, cable reels, transformers and infrastructure components for utility contractors.
Freight Brokers
Reliable flatbed capacity on Ontario–Quebec lanes for brokers who need a carrier that actually shows up.
Who We Are
About Freight5
Founded in 2016 and based in Brampton, Ontario, Freight5 has been moving flatbed freight across Ontario and Quebec for nearly a decade. We grew from a single truck to a fleet of 12 flatbed trucks pulling quad-axle flatbed trailers, driven by experienced, safety-focused professionals.
We built this company on a simple commitment: do the job right, every time. Show up on time, secure every load properly, and keep our customers informed from pickup to delivery.
Whether you're shipping steel, construction materials, lumber, industrial equipment or oversized loads, our team has the experience to move it safely and on schedule — and because we stay inside Ontario and Quebec, we know these lanes, these yards and these seasons better than a carrier passing through.
Our Brampton terminal sits on a fenced and gated yard, so trailers staged between loads sit behind a locked gate rather than on the street.
