Understanding drayage in Saint John / Moncton

Port terminals
Saint John is New Brunswick's Atlantic container port, on the Bay of Fundy and its 8-metre tides. Its West Side container terminal came through a major rebuild, and local drayage is mostly port-to-warehouse work around the city and up the river valley.

NB Southern Railway
The Irving-owned short line that links the port to the CN network via McAdam and the Maine gateway.
Container volumes are well below Halifax, so the carrier pool is regional and most providers treat Saint John and Moncton as one service area rather than separate markets.
Say whether the move starts at the Saint John terminal or a Moncton yard — the two cities are about 90 minutes apart on Route 1, and that drive is most of the price.

Moncton is the Hub City — the point where the routes to Nova Scotia, PEI and the rest of New Brunswick meet. CN runs its Atlantic operations from here, so drayage is rail- and highway-distribution work rather than port drayage.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about finding and hiring a drayage company in Saint John / Moncton.
This is a two-market listing: Saint John has an Atlantic port handling container and bulk freight, while Moncton is a major CN rail and highway hub sitting at the crossroads of routes connecting New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and PEI. Drayage carriers here typically serve one or both markets.
