Please note that as a result of the state of emergency that has been declared in B.C. due to wildfires, service will be impacted to the Central Interior & Southeastern B.C. Shipments within our network destined to areas that have been evacuated, will be held at the nearest terminal until the area reopens for delivery.
Our thoughts are with the people of Yellowknife and other parts of the Northwest Territories impacted by the ongoing wildfires. Please note that shipments within our network destined to areas with the Northwest Territories impacted by evacuation notices and various road closures are being held in Alberta until delivery operations are able to resume.
We are updating rates as of September 1, 2023. As always, Loomis Express is committed to providing enhanced partnership improvements in response to industry needs and suggestions. Updated rates and Terms and Conditions will be posted on this date.

As part of their Climate Change Plan, the federal government implemented a coordinated nation-wide carbon price beginning at $20 per tonne of carbon dioxide equivalent emissions (tCO2e) in 2019. As of April 1, 2023 this cost has increased by 225% to $65 per tonne. All provinces and territories must maintain a carbon price of at least $65 per tCO2e in 2023.

This increase effects multiple aspects of the economy and impacts costs across our entire network ranging from transportation costs to energy costs for heating, to equipment purchases and maintenance.

As a result of this change, we have incurred an increase in our overall costs. As such, it is necessary for us to apply a Carbon Surcharge of 2.5% effective September 1st, 2023 for all shipments handled across our network.

Please see updated Extended Area points to be effective May 3rd.
