Can-Truck to wind down operations

OSHAWA, Ont. — Ctl.ca has learned Oshawa-based trucking company Can-Truck is winding down its operations.

A Can-Truck official confirmed the closing this morning. He attributed it largely to the slumping auto industry, which comprised a big portion of the carrier’s business.

At the time of its closing, Can-Truck employed about 60 owner/operators. Can-Truck’s head office was in Oshawa and it operated satellite terminals in St. Catharines, Ont., Belleville, Ont. and Livonia, Mich.
