Driver questions

A few things drivers ask.

What do I need to drive for you?
Your own tractor and trailing equipment, well maintained. A valid licence and a clean abstract. Your own operating authority and insurance, plus drayage or cross-border experience.
Do I need my own trailer or chassis?
Yes. You bring the tractor and the trailing equipment, a trailer or a chassis for containers.
How and when do I get paid?
By direct deposit, on a settlement schedule set with you at onboarding.
What lanes will I run?
GTA pickup and delivery, Ontario lanes, and Ontario to Quebec, plus the drayage off the two ramps. Cross-border into the United States, long-haul beyond Ontario and Quebec, and Port of Montreal container moves are arranged by Setara Logistics with vetted partner carriers. Those lanes are open to you too if you hold the authority.
Who contracts me, Transport or Logistics?
Setara Transport is the carrier in the Setara Group and runs the trucks. Setara Logistics is the freight forwarder, and it contracts owner-operators and partner carriers for the lanes beyond. Customs is arranged through a licensed customs broker partner.
