The importance of reliability, safety and comfort.
Zac-Tranz fleet comprises mainly of the Volvo VNL 300 and 760. Our drivers find it spacious and easy to handle in their day to day activities also they can get the rest they need on extended hauls.
These power units provide Active Driver Assist which is in constant operation while the vehicle is in motion, providing stationary object detection with stationary vehicle braking, which sends audible and visual warnings if a metallic object is detected in front of the truck. Braking assist will be applied—at speeds greater than 15 mph—when the system recognizes the stationary object as a vehicle, independent of whether cruise control is engaged. The driver will receive a warning up to 3.5 seconds before an imminent impact with the vehicle, and, if no action is taken by the driver, Volvo Active Driver Assist will automatically engage the brakes.
Selecting the Volvo 760 VNL series was intended to make life on the road easier and more profitable, no matter what load we’re hauling.
EFFORTLESSLY SPLITS THE WIND
The latest VNL update features our most aerodynamic and fuel-efficient package. In fact, it offers up to 7.5% fuel savings* when paired with an aero trailer compared to the previous package. Up above, the roof air deflector complements the cab fairings, keeping the airflow attached and smoothing out costly turbulence between the cab and trailer. Also, the aerodynamic design of our mirror assembly reduces turbulence by attaching air more quickly to the tractor.
SLEEK DESIGN. SOLID SAVINGS
Out in front, the VNL features a new hood, bumper and lower airflow deflector, which work together to quickly manage airflow and efficiently channel it rearward. Down where the rubber meets the road, redesigned chassis fairings optimize airflow past the drive wheels and tractor-trailer gap.
STATE-OF-THE-ART LED HEADLIGHTS
To improve visibility and reduce maintenance, Volvo employs LED bulbs for all exterior lighting. All models feature LED high/low beam headlights, as well as LED turn, marker, and parking lamps. The premium headlamp also features a “signature” LED daytime running light.

Chassis Pool
With over 400 varied chassis to choose from, we can easily accommodate any one of our client’s requests.
Our Lead B-train units are designed to carry a single 20’ container in both open or closed configuration and our rear B-train units with back to dock capability is designed to carry either one 20’, one 40’ or 53’container.
Having these options allows us to meet our client’s requirements including such chassis as our multi-user unit, this chassis has been designed to meet specific Maritimes provinces and U.S. regulations as well as to carry various sizes of containers as a single load.
Reefer Containers
Genset chassis for Reefer containers.
Zac-Tranz offers refrigerated or heated service as well, we use Genset generators to ensure that cooling containers are maintained at the adequate temperature.
The Thermo King’s SG-4000 under-mount generator is simply the most advanced Genset solution on the market, meeting North American compliance requirements including: EPA, CARB, Environment Canada and EEA. A fully modular design means a solution for all applications, and intelligent controls ensure error-free operation. This piece of equipment is truly state of the art and reliable.
ISO/Chemical/Liquid Tanks
Safety is the key to success at Zac tranz.
Handling ISO, chemical, and liquid tanks cannot be overstated. These tanks are used to transport and store a wide range of hazardous and non-hazardous substances, including chemicals, gases, and flammable liquids. Ensuring safety is paramount to prevent accidents that could lead to catastrophic environmental damage, loss of life, and significant financial losses.
The transportation and storage of hazardous materials pose inherent risks, and robust safety procedures help prevent exposure to toxic substances and minimize the potential for accidents during loading, unloading, and transport. Training personnel in proper handling techniques, emergency response, and the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) is essential. By prioritizing safety, companies not only comply with regulatory requirements but also demonstrate their commitment to environmental stewardship and the protection of human life, fostering a culture of safety and responsibility within the industry.
Standard Dry Containers
Leveraging our expertise in drayage services, we ensure timely and secure delivery of cargo, catering to the diverse needs of their clients. Their operations are characterized by a deep understanding of the logistics and regulatory requirements of the region, allowing them to navigate complex transportation networks with ease. Zac Tranz Drayage prides itself on its commitment to reliability and customer satisfaction, employing state-of-the-art equipment and skilled personnel to handle each container with precision. This dedication to excellence has made them a trusted partner for businesses relying on seamless and cost-effective supply chain solutions in Eastern Canada.
Flat Rack Containers
Flat rack chassis are versatile transport platforms designed to carry oversized and heavy cargo that does not fit into standard shipping containers. They are particularly useful for items that require loading from the top or sides. Here are some examples of what can be transported on flat rack chassis:
Machinery and Equipment: Large industrial machinery, construction equipment, and agricultural machinery that are too big for standard containers.
Vehicles: Cars, trucks, buses, and other vehicles, especially those that are too large or oddly shaped for regular containers.
Building Materials: Steel beams, pipes, timber, and other large construction materials.
Boats and Yachts: Smaller boats and yachts that need to be transported over land.
Industrial Components: Oversized industrial parts and components, such as turbines, generators, and transformers.
Heavy Goods: Any heavy goods that require a sturdy and robust platform for transport.
Project Cargo: Large or heavy equipment for specific projects, such as wind turbines, large storage tanks, or refinery equipment.
Military Equipment: Various types of military vehicles and equipment that are often oversized and heavy.
Prefabricated Structures: Sections of prefabricated buildings or homes that need to be transported to a construction site.
Specialty Freight: Unique or irregularly shaped items that cannot be disassembled or packaged into standard containers.
Flat rack chassis provide the flexibility needed for transporting a wide range of bulky and heavy items, making them an essential tool in various industries requiring specialized logistics solutions.
Open Top Containers
Open top chassis are designed to transport cargo that is too tall to fit into standard closed containers and requires loading from the top. This type of chassis is ideal for items that cannot be easily loaded through traditional side doors or need to be crane-lifted into place. Here are some examples of what can be transported on open top chassis:
Heavy Machinery: Large industrial machines, construction equipment, and agricultural machinery that exceed standard container height limitations.
Taller Vehicles: Vehicles such as trucks, buses, and specialized equipment that are too tall for standard containers.
Large Pipes and Tubing: Long or oversized pipes and tubes used in construction, oil, and gas industries.
Timber and Lumber: Tall stacks of timber, logs, and other large wooden materials.
Industrial Components: Oversized components such as turbines, generators, and large engines.
Building Materials: Construction materials like steel beams, scaffolding, and prefabricated building sections.
Crated Goods: Tall crates or packages that cannot be disassembled or fit into standard containers.
Glass and Marble Slabs: Large and fragile glass panels or marble slabs that need careful top loading and unloading.
Mining Equipment: Large and heavy mining equipment that requires special handling.
Project Cargo: Specialized and custom-built equipment or components for industrial projects that exceed the height of standard containers.
Open top chassis provide a flexible solution for transporting tall and bulky cargo that would otherwise be challenging to load and secure, ensuring safe and efficient delivery to their destinations.
