Through the years...
Company originated in east-central Alberta by Tim’s grandfather John F. Boychuk when he bought his first truck, a model T Ford, that he used for personal travelling and hauling livestock or freight.
John Boychuk hauled freight for the U.S. Army on the newly built Alaska Highway
John Boychuk incorporated Boychuk Transport Ltd. and started hauling chemicals throughout Western Canada. In the early 1950’s John’s sons became involved with the company and due to rapid growth moved the operation to Edmonton. The company flourished becoming one of the major chemical carriers in Western Canada, supplying the forestry, oil and gas, explosives, mining and food industries.
John Boychuk went into semi-retirement and handed the reins over to Tim’s father, Nick Boychuk.
By this time the company had grown to over 50 trucks, 90 trailers, and 75 people working for the company, however John Boychuk was ready for retirement and Boychuk Transport Ltd. was sold to Rice Truck Lines from Great Falls, Montana
Nick Boychuk & son Tim Boychuk resurrected the family trucking company, starting with 1 truck and a set of trailers, and eventually being able to acquire the rights to the original name, and the new company Boychuk Transport (1988) Inc. was born.
Boychuk Transport (1988) Inc. continued operations hauling bulk chemicals. Expanding its fleet over the years.
By this time Boychuk Transport (1988) Inc. had 50 trucks, 150 trailers, and 80 employees, however Boychuk Transport (1988) Inc.’s major customer, Celanese in Edmonton was slated to close and move production overseas, so Tim took this opportunity to sell Boychuk Transport (1988) Inc. to Gibson Energy and redevelop his trucking company into a new direction.
Tim retained 2 trucks and immediately started Boychuk Ventures Inc., offering tractor service. Shortly after purchased a 3rd truck and 1 enclosed car hauling trailer, to enter a new niche and provide enclosed car hauling transportation.
In July Boychuk Ventures Inc. expended their company by purchasing McCallum Trucking Ltd. out of Wainwright, Alberta, hauling canola oil between Wainwright and Edmonton, and to customers throughout Western Canada, specializing in Kosher Bulk Transportation.
Boychuk Ventures Inc. continued to grow their business to include construction bulk chemical hauling throughout Western Canada, after gaining back a customer they had hauled for prior to the sale to Gibsons.
Boychuk Ventures inc. continues to operate their hauling divisions: enclosed car transportation, bulk construction chemicals, and Kosher Bulk Transportation, with a fleet of 17 trucks, 26 trailers, and a team of 20 staff, with plans to continue to grow within the industry.
“I believe that one of the reasons for our success is the close family atmosphere we have among our employees,” says Tim Boychuk. “Many of our staff have been with us for over 14 years.”
Actually… we are your father’s trucking company.
The Boychuk family has been part of Alberta trucking history since the 1930’s. Even when the original Boychuk Transport was sold in 1978, family members were able to resurrect the company 9 years later and again build it into a leader in the transport industry.

What Our Clients Say
We were totally impressed from the time we dropped our vehicle off at Boychuk's yard with all of the personnel (Tanya, Alan, Mike, Harold) that we interacted with. Mike was excellent at keeping us informed of the progress of our vehicle and accurate in letting us know the delivery time in Palm Springs. Will definitely ship with your company again!
“Harry was fantastic...”
Had three vehicles shipped to the West Coast and down to the USA. Completely satisfied and will use their services again. Their operator Harry was outstanding.
