In today’s fast-paced supply chain world, efficiency is everything. Companies across Nova Scotia, Montreal, and the rest of Canada increasingly rely on Power Only Trucking Services—also known as bobtail trucking—to keep freight moving without delays, high overhead, or the need to manage a full fleet.
If your business owns its own trailers but needs reliable tractors and professional drivers, Power Only is the perfect solution to streamline operations and stabilize your logistics.
In this blog, we break down what Power Only service means, who it benefits, how it reduces operational risk, and why more businesses are shifting to this flexible transportation model.
What Is a Power Only Service?
Power Only Service means you provide the trailer, and we provide the truck (tractor) and driver.
This is officially called bobtail service, where our tractor hooks onto your loaded or empty trailer and handles the transport from origin to destination.
This model is ideal for businesses that:
- Already own trailers but not tractors
- Have overflow shipments during peak seasons
- Require urgent, time-sensitive loads moved
- Want to avoid fleet costs, driver shortages, or maintenance delays
Our company provides Power Only / Bobtail services across Nova Scotia and Montreal, supporting businesses in industries such as manufacturing, retail, construction, warehousing, logistics, and distribution.
Why Businesses Choose Power Only Trucking Services
1. Cost-Effective & Flexible
Owning a tractor fleet is expensive—fuel, repairs, safety inspections, compliance, hiring drivers… the list goes on.
Power Only service eliminates these costs. You simply pay per load or per shift, giving you budget control and operational flexibility.
2. No Downtime or Delays
Driver shortages and equipment breakdowns can hold shipments hostage.
With Power Only, you always have:
- A ready tractor
- A qualified driver
- Guaranteed movement of your freight
This means fewer disruptions and a more reliable supply chain.
3. Perfect for Peak Seasons
During high-volume periods such as holidays, manufacturing peaks, port congestion, or construction spikes, Power Only service fills the gap instantly without requiring long-term commitments.
4. Use Your Existing Trailers
If you already invested in your own trailers, maximize their value by keeping them constantly moving.
Power Only allows you to:
- Reduce trailer idle time
