Has the famous CP Holiday Train come through your city yet?

Did you know: Since its establishment in 1999, the CPKC Holiday Train has generated over $22.5 million and donated more than 5 million pounds of food to support community food banks throughout North America.

Like you, we're all excitedly awaiting it's stop in one of our towns this year.

What an iconic piece of logistics machinery!

From your trusted roadsters, here are five essential tips to winterize your vehicle:

❄️ Check Battery and Charging System:
Ensure your battery is fully charged, and consider replacing it if it's old. Cold weather can affect battery performance.

❄️ Inspect Tires and Consider Winter Tires:
Check tire tread and pressure regularly. Consider switching to winter tires for improved traction in snow and ice.

❄️ Change to Winter-Grade Oil:
Use oil suitable for colder temperatures to ensure proper engine lubrication.

❄️ Check Fluid Levels and Emergency Kit:
Ensure all fluids are at the proper levels. Carry an emergency kit with essentials like a blanket, flashlight and jumper cables.

❄️ Test Heater, Defroster and Lights:
Ensure your heater, defroster and all lights are in good working condition for visibility and safety.

Our extensive experience across various industries allows us to harness core capabilities, crafting specialized solutions for your unique needs.

Winter's here, bringing icy roads! Besides winter tires and slowing down, here are some other crucial tips:

❄️ Gentle Movements: Smooth acceleration, braking, and steering prevent loss of control on icy surfaces.

❄️ Low Beams in Fog: Enhance visibility in foggy or snowy weather with low beams; high beams can reduce visibility.

❄️ Emergency Kit: Keep winter essentials in your vehicle – blankets, flashlight, jumper cables, shovel, and snacks.

Stay safe out there!

🎅 Fun Fact to get you into the holiday spirit:
Santa Claus as a Logistical Marvel!

If Santa Claus were a real person, he would be the world's most remarkable logistician. According to estimates, Santa would need to visit approximately 2.2 billion children around the world, traveling at an average speed of 1,800 miles per second to deliver presents in one night.

That's some impressive logistics!

🎄🚛 Sleighs may be reserved for Santa, but our semi is packed and ready to roll, spreading holiday cheer one tree at a time!

Our drive can fuel your passion!

In 1985, Robert McDonald saved and borrowed from family to buy a truck and operating license in Woodbridge, Ontario. At the start, APPS consisted of 2 trucks and 2 employees.

We tell you this, to paint the picture that APPS was once just one man with a dream.

Just like Robert built APPS from the ground up so many years ago, we believe our resources can help scale your business by serving your logistics needs.

We're driven to serve you.

As the chilly season approaches, here's a friendly reminder about winter tire laws in Canada!

In BC, it's a legal must to have your winter tires on if you're travelling through mountain passes from Oct. 1st to Apr. 30th.

The only other province in Canada that does this is Quebec, which requires winter tires but during a slightly different timeframe, from Dec. 1st to March 15th.

Stay safe, and keep those winter wheels rolling smoothly through the cold and icy months!

Our drive can help your business save money.

With our core values being: Integrity, Respect, Profits and Continuous Improvement, we always have your best interest in mind when it comes to delivering your goods on budget.

We're driven to serve you.

Happy Thanksgiving from the APPS family!

Today, we join together with millions of Canadians to observe the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.

This day was created to honour survivors of our country's tragic residential-school system—as well as the children who never returned home, their families and their communities.

Please take time today to reflect and, if you can, to participate in events in your area.

A glimpse of another busy—yet rewarding—day at APPS.

Our Driver Check-in counter is where our drivers (and those of our affiliates) report their arrival, provide necessary documentation, receive instructions for their deliveries or pickups and, when necessary, undergo safety and compliance checks before proceeding with their assigned tasks.

This helps us provide you, our customer, with maximum efficiency, transparency and peace of mind.

Happy first day of fall, everyone!

Even though we'll soon be seeing bursts of seasonal colour all across the country, dark and rainy days are on their way too.

Yet even when skies are grey, we're always thrilled to head out on another delivery.

Whether one of our drivers is just heading out to deliver a shipment or is coming back home, every day behind the wheel is a new and unique adventure.

And we wouldn't have it any other way.

Adventure awaits!

Our dedicated drivers love that every journey begins with the knowledge that each delivery is a unique experience.

There are so many awe-inspiring sights to see across this beautiful country.
