Surrey, British Columbia
Freight Services in Surrey, BC
Surrey is where most of the Lower Mainland's southbound freight actually crosses. Pacific Highway is the commercial crossing on Highway 15, and the industrial land around Campbell Heights was built for the trucks that use it.
What shapes freight out of Surrey
Surrey's freight profile is set by Pacific Highway, the crossing that commercial traffic uses when Peace Arch on Highway 99 is reserved for passenger vehicles. It runs longer hours than Huntingdon and carries far more trucks, which means both more capacity and more queue. Add the industrial development at Campbell Heights and along Highway 91, and Surrey is the most truck-dense part of the region.
- Pacific Highway is the commercial crossing; a southbound load routed to Peace Arch by mistake is a wasted afternoon
- Longer crossing hours make Surrey the better option for a load that is not ready until late in the day
- Traffic on Highway 1 and Highway 91 is the main variable in a Surrey pickup window, and it is worse than the distance suggests
- Campbell Heights and the Newton industrial area are dock-height, so liftgates are rarely needed on outbound freight

Shipping from Surrey, answered
What local shippers ask before the first booking. If yours is not here, call dispatch and ask.
For commercial freight, almost always. Pacific Highway on Highway 15 is the region's commercial crossing. Peace Arch on Highway 99 is for passenger vehicles, and a loaded truck routed there is a truck that has to turn around.
More than the distance suggests. Highway 1 and Highway 91 both back up at predictable times, and a pickup window set on mileage alone gets missed. It is worth building into the appointment rather than hoping.
Yes. Most of the industrial land in those areas is dock-height and built for trucks, so outbound freight from them rarely needs a liftgate and loading tends to be quick.
