Weight restrictions during Canada Spring Thaw period 2025

Same as each year, following the Quebec Ministry of Transport regulations, carriers will apply restrictions
to cargo weight during the annual Spring Thaw period, expected to start on March 15th (u.c.p.).

THAW PERIOD – TENTATIVE DATES: To follow soonest

The weight restrictions apply to all pre- and on-carriage deliveries to and from the province of
Quebec performed by trucktransport within the determined period (to follow)

It is important to note that the weight restrictions not only apply to the total cargo weight in the container
but also to the distribution of the weight over the axles of the chassis. If the weight is not distributed evenly
across all axles, the container will then be subject to an axle overloading fine.
