When people search for shipping lines to Canada, they often think of carriers like MSC, Maersk, CMA CGM, and Grimaldi. These companies operate vessels from the USA to Canadian ports such as Montreal, Vancouver, and Halifax.
➡️ Individuals cannot book directly with these shipping lines.
➡️ Even if they could, they would pay tariff rates — which are higher than the discounted contract rates secured by All TransportDepot.
Thanks to our volume contracts, All TransportDepot offers competitive pricing that beats standard tariffs.
