About South Port Transport
Built on one lane, one promise
South Port Transport started in Regina with a single cargo van and a simple idea: businesses in southeast Saskatchewan needed a carrier that went to the U.S. every day, not when a truck happened to fill up. We ran the Regina–Estevan–Minot lane until customers could set their clocks by it, then added a box truck for pallets and full loads.
Cross-border freight is mostly paperwork and predictability. We handle the PARS and PAPS entries with your broker, we cross at North Portal at the same time every day, and we call before you have to ask. Hotshot service grew out of the calls we kept getting from farms and oilfield crews with a machine down and a part sitting in a warehouse in Minot or Bismarck.
We are still small on purpose. The dispatcher who quotes your load knows what is on the truck, and the driver who delivers it has your number.

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.
