UPS Freight Expands North American Service
UPS Freight, the less-than-truckload unit of UPS Inc., said it will expand service to Mexico and include customs brokerage capabilities and a single invoicing for all services between the U.S., Canada and Mexico.
The company also said its next-day service umbrella for freight moving to and from Toronto will expand to include Michigan, northern Ohio and northern Indiana.
“The expanded service to and from Mexico ensures that customers on both sides of the border will enjoy faster transit times,” said Kevin Hartma, UPS Freight’s vice president of strategy.
“We’ve combined UPS’s global trade experience with local market expertise to deliver the fast, reliable service customers are demanding throughout North America,” he said in a statement.
Freight moving to and from Mexico will be expedited by using five border crossings, including three in Texas, and one each in California and Arizona.
UPS Freight operates more than 200 service centers in the U.S. and Canada and will rely on more than 40 in Mexico.
UPS Inc. is ranked No. 1 on the Transport Topics 100 listing of U.S. and Canadian for-hire carriers.
