Not Sure What Transportation You Need? BN Dulay Can Help Plan Your Shipment

You know what needs to move. You know where it needs to go.

But do you need a flat deck? A different trailer? Power only? What if your freight needs storage before the next part of the journey?

You don't need to have all of those answers before contacting a transportation company.

At BN Dulay Trux, our team can help you understand the transportation options available based on your freight, pickup and delivery requirements, timing and overall logistics needs.

Whether you're moving commercial freight, equipment, machinery, materials or industrial components, a good place to start is simply by telling us what you need to move and where it needs to go.

What Type of Truck or Trailer Does My Freight Need?

Different freight can call for different transportation equipment.

Size, weight, shape, loading requirements and the type of freight being moved can all help determine the appropriate truck or trailer.

For example, some equipment or industrial freight may benefit from the loading flexibility of a flat deck or other open-deck option. Other products may have different transportation or protection requirements.

And as we move into BC's wetter fall months, considering the characteristics of the freight and how it needs to travel becomes even more useful.

The important part?

You don't need to select the equipment yourself.

Provide our team with information about your shipment, and we can help determine the transportation approach that fits the move.

What If I Already Have a Trailer and Just Need a Truck?

That's where power-only transportation may be an option.

Power only generally refers to providing the tractor and professional driver to move a customer's compatible trailer.

For businesses that already have trailers but need transportation capacity, this can provide another way to keep freight moving without arranging a complete truck-and-trailer solution.

If you're not sure whether power only fits your situation, speak with our team about what you already have and what you need moved.

What If My Freight Needs Storage?

Sometimes the transportation schedule and the project schedule don't line up perfectly.

A shipment may need somewhere to go before delivery. Equipment or materials may need to be held between stages of a project. Businesses may also need additional space as they coordinate incoming or outgoing freight.

BN Dulay Trux offers warehouse and storage options, giving customers another way to coordinate their transportation and logistics needs.

Instead of thinking only about the truck, we can look at the bigger picture:

Where is the freight now? Where does it ultimately need to go? And what needs to happen in between?

That can help us identify how BN Dulay may be able to support the overall move.

Can BN Dulay Pick Up and Deliver at Vancouver Ports?

Yes. BN Dulay Trux is approved for pickup and delivery at Vancouver ports.

For businesses moving freight through the port, this adds another transportation option when coordinating goods coming into or leaving the Vancouver area.

Port transportation can also be part of a broader logistics requirement. Depending on the shipment, a customer may need transportation from the port, onward delivery, or storage as part of the process.

If you have an upcoming port shipment, tell our team what you're moving and where it needs to go so we can discuss how we can support it.

What Information Should I Give the BN Dulay Team?

You don't need to arrive with a complete transportation plan.

Start with what you know.

Helpful information can include:

• What you're moving

• Pickup and delivery locations

• Dimensions and weight, when available

• Number of pieces or units

• Preferred timing

• How the freight will be loaded and unloaded

• Whether storage or another logistics service may be required

Don't know everything yet?

That's okay. Start the conversation with our team and we can help identify what information is needed next.

What About Freight That Needs Extra Consideration During BC's Wetter Months?

Fall is a good time to think about how your freight needs to travel.

Some products and materials have different transportation requirements than large equipment or industrial components. Loading, unloading, protection requirements and the type of transportation equipment can all be part of that conversation.

Rather than trying to determine the solution yourself, tell our team about the freight.

Our goal is to understand what you're moving and help identify an appropriate transportation option for the shipment.
