FLS Transportation Services

FLS Transportation Services

FLS Transportation Services was founded in 1987 and operates as a third-party logistics provider from its Montreal headquarters. The firm runs a non-asset model, meaning it owns no trucks itself but instead connects shippers with a vetted base of 54,000 carriers — representing roughly 400,000 trucks — across the United States, Canada, and Mexico. The firm's service catalog spans dry van, temperature-controlled, intermodal, bulk, drayage, LTL, and specialized freight. FLS publishes a customer agreement plan built on three pillars: 24/7 support with dedicated sales, customer-success, and dispatch teams; a carrier-compliance program that it says yields a 0.001% claims rate; and a pricing model that leans on four decades of lane history to produce a guaranteed price for each load. The firm's physical footprint now includes offices in Anderson, Chicago, Denver, Phoenix, Raleigh, Salt Lake City, Toronto, and Calgary, among others. FLS Transportation expanded its operational base most recently through the acquisition of Anderson Transportation & Logistics, a South Carolina-based brokerage. The firm's shipper tools include free RFP checklists and KPI worksheets, signaling a focus on mid-market procurement teams and route planners who manage freight budgets directly. What distinguishes FLS from a standard freight aggregator is its explicit three-point customer agreement — a publicly stated warranty covering service level, carrier safety, and price — which effectively converts a variable brokerage cost into a predefined obligation for shippers.
