The Ontario Construction Report – MARCH 2014 – PAGE OCR B5 NORTH AMERICAN STEEL CONSTRUCTION CONFERENCE Moore Brothers Transport Ltd.'s flatbed trailer fleet serves Ontario's construction industry STAFF WRITER – The Ontario Construction Report Special Feature Since 2000, Moore Brothers Transport Ltd. has served the construction industry through its fleet of more than 100 flatbed trailers. Owners Ron and Garry Moore worked alongside their father Barry of Barry Moore Transport all their lives. When he died in 1999 they decided to start anew, fol- lowing the principles and business prac- tices they had learned from Barry. The family-run business has grown over a decade to become one of Canada’s pre- mier flatbed carriers and has the ability to handle loads of any size, including over di- mensional. General manager Susan Moore says the Brampton-based company has “hauled ma- terial for the Toronto subway, the CN tracks, the Royal Ontario Museum (ROM) and the Windsor casino.” “Our senior management team has several decades of combined experience and this allows us to handle many complex projects,” she said. The company also hauls long beams for many of Toronto's downtown condo- minium projects. The company’s fleet includes more than 100 flatbed three, four and five axle trail- ers, rack and tarps, rolltite trailers and trombone trailers up to 90 ft. plus. Moore credits the company’s long-term relationships with a commitment to profes- sionalism, staying abreast of technology and maintaining equipment quality. “We ensure our staff is trained, and support their safety awareness with incentives and regu- lar meetings.” She says the company also offers value- added services including rapid response, quick replies on quotes and management of shipments from beginning to end. “Our simplified service also ensures one point of contact from dispatch to accounting and customer service.” That customer commitment also in- cludes supporting clients wherever they go. “We might do most of our work in Ontario and Quebec but if we have a client who needs something moved anywhere from coast to coast, we’ll be there to get it there for them.” The company has permits for over- weight and over-width loads in many provinces and provides escort and one-time permit fees where required.
