Transport your freight to and from Mexico, the United States, and Canada with confidence. At LAC – Latin American Cargo™, we offer expert ground shipping and cross-border trucking services tailored to your logistics needs.
Whether you require FTL shipping, LTL shipping, flatbeds and heavy haul equipment, or intermodal (road-rail) transportation, our solutions are built to ensure efficiency, compliance, and on-time delivery.

We provide a full range of domestic and international trucking services:
Trucking to Mexico is one part of a larger, coordinated cross-border logistics effort at LAC™, working alongside trucking to Canada across the same carrier network. Our cross-border trucking services span all three North American corridors, connecting Mexico, the USA, and Canada through one point of coordination. Rather than treating each lane separately, we align documentation and customs requirements from origin to destination, working closely with brokers so your freight keeps moving instead of waiting at the border.
Cross-border trade has grown substantially due to the USMCA, creating new opportunities for efficient freight movement across North America. According to the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, goods transported by truck between the U.S., Mexico, and Canada totaled $828 billion in 2021, up 7.2% from 2019.
LAC™ cross-border shipping experts manage every step of the process—ensuring your cargo crosses borders smoothly, complies with customs regulations, and arrives safely.

With deep knowledge of North American trade corridors, bilingual support, and personalized customer service, LAC is your ideal partner for cross-border ground freight.
Our trucking-to-Mexico network moves freight through the busiest US-Mexico gateways, matching your cargo to the right corridor. On the US side, we route through San Diego (Otay Mesa), Calexico, Nogales, El Paso, Eagle Pass, Laredo, Pharr (McAllen), and Brownsville. On the Mexico side, these connect to Tijuana, Mexicali, Nogales, Ciudad Juárez, Piedras Negras, Nuevo Laredo, Reynosa, and Matamoros. With deep knowledge of each crossing, LAC™ keeps your freight moving smoothly across North American trade corridors.

With over 25 years of experience in North American freight movement, LAC™ has built a strong reputation for managing cross-border logistics with precision. We work with top-tier trucking partners across Mexico, the U.S., and Canada to offer you:
Cross-border trucking involves the transportation of goods between two or more countries—typically across Mexico, the United States, and Canada—using commercial trucks.
Typical documentation includes a commercial invoice, bill of lading (BOL), certificate of origin, and relevant customs forms. Our team will guide you through every step of the shipping process.
While we don’t act as a customs broker, we work closely with brokers and ensure your documents are in order to avoid delays at the border.
Transit times vary by route and service type. For example, FTL between Texas and northern Mexico may take 1–2 days, while longer routes to or from Canada may take 4–7 days.
We serve a wide range of industries including automotive, electronics, food & beverage, retail, and industrial manufacturing.
Absolutely. Whether you ship once or regularly, we can tailor a solution that fits your needs.
The USMCA, or United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement, governs tariff and customs rules among the three countries. For cross-border trucking services moving freight between them, this can mean preferential tariff treatment on qualifying goods, provided documentation such as a certificate of origin is in place. This is why trucking to Mexico requires careful, coordinated planning between carriers, brokers, and shippers.
Delays typically come from incomplete or inconsistent shipping documents, customs inspections, and congestion at the crossing itself. For businesses relying on trucking to Mexico, these hold-ups can disrupt otherwise reliable transit times. The best way to reduce this risk is to work closely with an experienced broker to verify paperwork accuracy before the shipment reaches the border, keeping delays to a minimum.
ACE truck manifest filing applies to trucks arriving at a U.S. land border, while ACI (eManifest) requirements apply to highway carriers entering Canada. Both are electronic pre-arrival documents that report a truck’s cargo, driver, and shipment details to customs authorities before the vehicle reaches the border. They must be filed ahead of arrival so officials can review the load, though filing the manifest is a pre-arrival reporting step and does not by itself clear the shipment through customs. For trucking into the US or Canada, these manifests are a standard part of the cross-border process and help prevent delays at the crossing.
Yes. As a freight forwarder coordinating domestic and cross-border carrier partners across Mexico, the US, and Canada, LAC can plan these legs together. Our Ground Freight Shipping Routes cover trucking across the United States, Mexico, and Canada, alongside cross-border corridors between all three countries. That means a domestic pickup or final-mile delivery can be coordinated with your international leg on a single trucking to Mexico plan, giving you one connected route managed end to end.
