Saia, TST Overland to enter U.S.-Canada cross-border LTL partnership

Saia and TST Overland are entering into a partnership that will allow each company to deliver the other’s LTL freight across the U.S.-Canada border.

TST Overland Express, a subsidiary of TFI International, formerly TransForce, (No. 7 on the CCJ Top 250), and Saia (No. 26) have announced a U.S.-Canada cross-border less-than-truckload partnership.

Under the terms of the deal, Saia will service TST Overland’s U.S.-bound LTL freight, and TST Overland will handle Saia’s LTL freight entering Canada.

The partnership will be effective beginning May 22, and the companies say cross-border freight will be services as usual during the transition period.
