A few things worth clearing up
Costs and services
How much does freight shipping from San Francisco cost?
Pricing depends on the pickup and delivery ZIP or postal codes, packaged dimensions, total weight and service needed. Send those details with your ready date for a quote.
Include any liftgate needs, residential addresses, delivery appointments or access restrictions so they can be priced before booking.
Can I ship just one pallet from the Bay Area?
Yes. Less-than-truckload shipping lets your pallet travel with other freight, so you don’t need to book a whole trailer.
For larger shipments or freight that needs a dedicated truck, full truckload is also available. We’ll compare suitable options around the shipment and your deadline.
Can you pick up from my supplier in Oakland, Hayward or San Jose?
Yes. Local pickup covers San Francisco, the East Bay, the Peninsula and the South Bay.
Send the supplier’s address, contact details, pickup reference and receiving hours. Include the ready date and any appointment requirements so collection can be coordinated with the supplier.
Can you deliver freight in San Francisco without a loading dock?
Yes, provided suitable equipment and access can be arranged. Tell us whether there’s a dock, forklift or neither, and include the shipment’s dimensions and weight.
Mention restricted receiving hours, limited truck access or any unloading help needed. Liftgate service and other requirements must be arranged when booking.
Is your San Francisco freight location actually in the city?
Our Bay Area location is in Hayward, at 21062 Forbes Ave, Hayward, CA 94545. Pickup and delivery serve San Francisco and the surrounding Bay Area.
Contact us before bringing freight to the location so receiving hours and paperwork are confirmed.
Shipping to Canada
Do you ship freight from the Bay Area to Canada?
How long does freight shipping from San Francisco to Canada take?
Northbound transit includes the Bay Area pickup, the connection to Fontana, the scheduled Canadian departure and final delivery. The total depends on the destination and when your freight is ready.
Send both addresses and your required delivery date. We’ll confirm the estimated timing for the whole shipment, including the connection.
Do you ship freight from Vancouver to San Francisco?
Yes. Scheduled LTL leaves our Surrey terminal on Tuesdays, with an estimated 2-3 business days to Hayward.
That estimate is terminal to terminal. Local collection, delivery and any time waiting for departure are additional. Full truckload options can also be quoted.
Can I use my own customs broker?
Yes. Give us your broker’s details when you book and we’ll coordinate the shipment paperwork with them.
Need clearance arranged? Our licensed customs brokerage partner can handle it, with Moto coordinating the transportation and clearance arrangements. How customs clearance works.
