What Makes Heavy Undercarriage Parts Challenging to Ship in Canada?
Heavy undercarriage parts like idlers weighing up to 500+ lbs and sprockets requiring pallets face challenges from cross-province distances spanning BC to Newfoundland, plus seasonal winter road issues in Alberta and Saskatchewan. High demand in Ontario and Quebec construction peaks adds pressure. AFT Parts solves this with province-wide coverage for 20+ brands including Caterpillar, Komatsu, and Bobcat, offering tailored shipping for track rollers and carrier rollers.
What Is LTL Freight and Why Use It for Heavy Machinery Parts?
LTL (Less-Than-Truckload) freight shares truck space for 150–10,000 lb shipments, ideal for track shoes, carrier rollers, and repair kits, saving 30–50% versus full truckload for mining operators in Manitoba or New Brunswick. AFT Parts partners provide transparent CAD rates, 3–7 day delivery across provinces, and WhatsApp tracking for parts like Komatsu PC400 track rollers.
| Shipping Method | Best For | Est. CAD Cost (500 lb Shipment ON to AB) | Delivery Time | AFT Parts Perk |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| LTL Freight | Sprockets/Idlers | $250–450 | 3–5 days | Free quotes, palletizing included |
| Free Ground | Rollers/Pads | $0 (under threshold) | 2–4 days | Most provinces |
| Local Pickup | Urgent bulk | $0 | Same-day | ON/AB/BC/QC partners |
