What Is Cartage?
Cartage refers to the local and regional movement of freight — typically within a city or metropolitan area like Edmonton. Unlike long-haul or intercity trucking, cartage services focus on short-distance, same-day, or last-mile delivery between manufacturing plants, warehouses, distribution centers, and final customers. This can range from a single package to full pallet loads or specialized items.
