LTL vs Intermodal

If you had to chose between doing LTL runs between Toronto and Montreal vs container work from Toronto to the Port of Montreal which would you prefer?

Sure the LTL means you had have stops... deliveries (likely 4 per day) which means you will have to back up and wait at shippers/receivers.

At the Port of Montreal you would have to go thru the scanner and wait in line to drop/pick containers. No backing up.

 

Yes... $30 bucks per stop. I was wondering if people prefer to do LTL work as its more stop... wait... and go...

The thing with Port of Montreal is that it's fairly easy... park in the assigned spot to get loaded/unloaded (fairly quickly). The downside is going thru scanner... keying in info in the terminal computers before entry to the Tremont section of the port (which is the worst). Not to mention most of the workers don't like it when you speak in english... and telling the crane operator thru hand signals if he's picking up the right container and dropping it on the pins...
