“WE HAVE PARTNERED WITH REPUTABLE BATTERY RECYCLING ORGANIZATIONS, SUCH AS LITHION, TO RESPONSIBLY PROCESS USED BATTERIES, REINFORCING OUR COMMITMENT TO SUSTAINABILITY.”

– ADRIAN PAVONE, PRESIDENT, CARDINAL COURIERS

Cardinal Couriers is thrilled to announce a brand-new service: electric vehicle (EV) battery logistics. The company now offers specialized transportation solutions for the delivery of EV batteries to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and dealerships across Canada.

“Cardinal Couriers has opened its EV battery division, allowing for the safe transport of EV batteries across Canada, to all qualified vehicle dealerships,” said Adrian Pavone, president of Cardinal Couriers. “Our dedicated EV battery division provides safe and efficient pickup of used batteries for recycling, utilizing specialized equipment to ensure secure handling. Our extensive nationwide network enables us to meet the growing demands of the EV market, ensuring timely deliveries and pickups. “We have partnered with reputable battery recycling organizations, such as Lithion, to responsibly process used batteries, reinforcing our commitment to sustainability,” added Pavone.

This innovative service positions Cardinal Couriers as a leader in the EV logistics sector, supporting the transition to electric vehicles while prioritizing environmentally friendly practices. To achieve its mission of addressing the EV battery handling gap, Cardinal Couriers had to develop specialized equipment and embark on comprehensive training.

“People have to understand how large and specialized these batteries are,” added Joe Ariganello, director of sales and marketing for Cardinal Couriers. “At Cardinal, we quickly discovered that no two battery pick-ups are the same. There are different specifications depending on the battery size, the space requirements listed by the OEM and other constraints.”

The company is working with three OEMs across Canada to perform EV battery pickups and route the product to the proper, qualified source.

Cardinal realizes the handling of electric vehicle products and components is an evolving market, and the company is prepared to advance alongside it.

“Regulations are going to change. We at Cardinal Couriers are staying on top of these changes as well.”

This is only the beginning for Cardinal Courier’s endeavours in EV batteries and components. “As we continue our EV services, we are looking to bring some artificial intelligence into it, so we can potentially monitor the EV battery as it’s being transported and react quickly to any concerns,” teased Pavone.
