Sutco Transportation

Sutco Transportation Serving the Pacific Northwest of Canada and USA. Sutco Contracting Ltd. Sutco proudly services all of Canada and the top three Northwestern States.

Transportation company based in the West Kootenays hauling freight, wood residuals, logs, equipment and more with terminals in Castlegar (BC), Creston (BC), Quesnel (BC) and Kettle Falls (WA). was established in 1995 as a family run business consisting of four logging trucks based in the West Kootenay community of Salmo, BC. From there our owners set out to realize their vision of becoming a major

presence in the transportation industry. In 1996 Sutco purchased their first W 900 Kenworth highway tractor and a used set of Super B flat deck trailers. In a short time Sutco was established as an inter provincial general freight transport company with the ability to provide impeccable service. 1999 was a year of tremendous growth for our company. Not only did our highway division expand and take on shape as an international service provider hauling freight in and out of the top three western United States, we were also able to establish ourselves in the transportation fields of heavy haul, wood chips, and short logs. In 2004 we challenged ourselves to once again better serve our customer base, this challenge saw to the successful expansion of all of our divisions. We continue to grow and have recently opened a new office in West Kelowna that will support our highway and Okanagan Chip fleets. Today, using the same determination and hard work ethics Sutco Contracting is still family owned and is still operated from our original home terminal in Salmo BC. Our management team prides itself in providing a friendly and safe work environment for all of Sutco’s employees while going the extra mile for all of our customers. Because we continue to meet and satisfy the demand of a growing customer base and we continually accept all challenges to diversify as needed to remain successful in this ever-evolving industry we truly do consider our selves to be “Transportation Specialists”.

We had the opportunity to visit the Bunker Hill Mining site, meet with the Bunker Hill team, and see firsthand the exciting progress being made. It was a valuable opportunity to strengthen relationships, align on our shared commitment to safety and operational excellence, and look ahead to the work we will accomplish together.

🏁 Sutco is proud to sponsor Ché McPherson!

When he's not behind the wheel as a professional truck driver with Sutco, Ché can be found chasing his passion on the kart track.

His dedication, focus, and drive extend far beyond the road, and we're proud to support him as he competes and represents our community in the racing world.

We're cheering you on every lap of the way. 🏎️💨

One of our favorite photos from the day? Seeing Sutco teammates cheering Ché on at the track. We're lucky to work alongside such an amazing group of people who support each other both on and off the job. 💚🏁

An important investigation into challenges that many in the industry have been discussing for years. Fair compensation, proper worker classification, strong safety practices, and consistent enforcement are critical, not only for drivers, but for the integrity and sustainability of the entire trucking sector.

Responsible carriers should not be forced to compete against operators who gain an advantage through non-compliance. The industry, regulators, and stakeholders all have a role to play in creating a level playing field.

Canadian Trucking Alliance BC Trucking Association

Only a fraction of the thousands of trucking firms analyzed by
Globe and Mail have ever received an in-depth safety audit by provincial transport authorities. Firms routinely violate labour laws without penalty. The lawlessness crisis in trucking is undeniable.
