Seaway
The logistics of large-scale distribution throughout North America are cost-effective for Oshawa businesses. Only minutes away from Highway 401, Port Oshawa, managed by the Oshawa Harbour Commission, provides access to the Great Lakes/St. Lawrence Seaway system for inter-lake and overseas commercial shipping.
Port Oshawa is the only seaway-depth harbour on Lake Ontario between Montreal and Toronto.
Accommodating full seaway-size vessels, the port handles cargoes such as steel, fertilizer, calcium chloride and project cargo. The port's customized stevedoring and terminal services, which include specialized storage and distribution, heavy-lift equipment, export packing, Canada Customs clearance and inter-modal transshipment, make it a fast, economical alternative for national and international shipping.
