Hotshot dispatch runs 24 hours a day
A broken-down combine at harvest, a rig waiting on a part, a customer order that missed the truck. Call and we will give you a straight answer on when a van can leave.
Why South Port
A small carrier that treats your freight like it is the only load on the truck
South Port Transport is a Regina-based, owner-operated carrier. We started with one van and a promise to a handful of local businesses: we will be at the border every weekday, and we will answer the phone. That promise still runs the company. The people who quote your load are the same people who drive it, so nothing gets lost between sales and dispatch.

- Real-time updates by text or phone

Customers
Trusted on both sides of the border
We have a standing pickup with South Port. Parts ordered from Minot on Monday are on my counter Wednesday morning and I never have to phone about the border.
They pick up from our dock every morning and our Minot customers have it the same day. Same driver, same time. That consistency is worth a lot.
Combine went down at 6pm. Called South Port, the part left Minot at nine and was in the yard before midnight. Harvest kept going.
Hotshots to lease sites at odd hours and they always find the road. Dispatch actually answers, which is rarer than it should be.
Our Canadian shipments used to be a headache. South Port sorted the paperwork with our broker once and it has been routine ever since.
Questions
Things shippers ask us
Not covered here? Call dispatch and ask.
When does the daily run leave?
The truck leaves Regina around noon on weekdays. Have your freight ready in the morning and it goes the same day. Later bookings can usually be worked in, but call to confirm.
Do you handle the customs paperwork?
Yes. Send us the commercial invoice and we coordinate the PARS or PAPS entry with your customs broker, prepare the e-manifest and confirm clearance before the truck reaches North Portal. If you do not have a broker, we will introduce you to one.
How fast can a hotshot leave?
Usually within the hour, any time of day or night. Dispatch will give you a real departure time when you call, not a guess.
What can and cannot go on the truck?
General dry freight: pallets, crates, cartons, parts, equipment. We do not carry dangerous goods, refrigerated or frozen freight, livestock or personal household moves. If you are unsure, ask and we will tell you straight.
Where do you stop between Regina and Minot?
The scheduled truck serves Regina, Estevan, North Portal and Minot. Weyburn and other businesses close to Highway 39 (Milestone, Yellow Grass, Midale, Bienfait) can be added to the run on request.
Can you pick up my online order from a U.S. address?
Yes. Have it shipped to a Minot-area depot or vendor, send us the tracking and the invoice, and we will bring it across on the daily run with the customs entry done.
Is my freight insured?
Yes. We carry full cargo insurance valid in both Canada and the U.S. Tell us the declared value when you book and we will confirm coverage.
How do I pay?
E-transfer, cheque or credit card. Regular shippers are invoiced on account at the end of the month.
