Container drayage across Toronto and the GTA.
Setara arranges container drayage across the Greater Toronto Area, delivering to warehouses in Toronto, Mississauga, Brampton, Vaughan, Markham, and Hamilton. We are Vaughan-based, and we arrange your move through a vetted carrier network, with one point of contact from the ramp to your dock.
Where do you deliver containers across the GTA?
We are Vaughan-based, so the GTA is home turf. We arrange inbound container moves off the region's CN and CPKC rail ramps and Ontario ports and into warehouses and distribution centres right across the Greater Toronto Area.

How do you cover container drayage in the GTA?
Setara is a freight forwarder. We arrange and manage the core GTA drayage lanes through a vetted carrier network, and we stay accountable for the move from the ramp to your dock.
We arrange the core Toronto and GTA container drayage lanes through carriers we vet and use regularly, so your containers stay under one point of contact and one invoice.
We match each container to a carrier with the right equipment for the move, so you get a clean dray with one team accountable throughout.
When volume spikes, or a move needs reach beyond our core GTA lanes, we tender it across the wider network. You get the capacity without the cost of a national fleet, and you still know exactly who to call.
How we cover the GTA
- Vetted carriers on core GTA drayage lanes
- Equipment matched to the container
- Vetted carrier network for reach and surge
- One point of contact, one invoice
Can a GTA container keep moving across Ontario or over the border?
Plenty of GTA container freight does not stop inside the region. We arrange container moves out across Ontario for freight bound beyond the GTA.
For cross-border moves between Canada and the United States, customs is coordinated through a licensed customs broker partner, so clearance and the drayage stay under one point of contact. We are not an in-house broker, and we do not claim bonded-carrier status.
