ABOUT US
Who We Are: Family Heritage, Driver-First Values
RJ Truck & Trailer Repair Inc. is more than a heavy-duty mechanic shop. Our story begins with Jay, a 30-year veteran truck driver who turned his hands-on knowledge into a trusted business for the Cornwall and South Glengarry logistics corridor. Originally servicing his own fleet in Montreal and Toronto beginning in 2008, Jay and his family founded RJ Truck & Trailer Repair Inc., eventually growing it into a public service center. In 2021, we strategically relocated to Boundary Road, South Glengarry, positioning ourselves along the critical Highway 401 route to better serve owner-operators and transport companies moving between the GTA and Montreal. As a family-run operation, we live and work by the principle that every truck on our lot represents someone’s livelihood. Our driver-first perspective means we don’t just fix trucks—we understand the stress of downtime, the urgency of an MTO out-of-service order, and the real cost of a DPF derate. Today, Jay leads as head mechanic, his wife handles parts, and Jivi Ratnam oversees administration and strategy. Our commitment is to honest, affordable, and fast repairs, with every decision grounded in decades of real-world trucking experience.

Our Mission: Uptime, Compliance & Community
At RJ Truck & Trailer Repair Inc., our mission is to minimize your downtime and maximize your equipment’s longevity. As an MTO- and Emissions-certified shop, we serve as a compliance gatekeeper for fleets and owner-operators throughout Cornwall, South Glengarry, and beyond.

We’ve expanded our service architecture to include tire services, trailer repairs, and a full commercial truck wash, ensuring your fleet isn’t just operational, but also compliant and professional. Our philosophy is simple: treat every client with respect, offer only necessary repairs, and always prioritize long-term solutions over quick fixes. From minor fifth-wheel adjustments to major emissions work, we stand behind every job with integrity. Our dual-location model—Boundary Road hub and the original Williamstown shop—ensures rapid response and convenient access along the 401 corridor. The difference at RJ Truck & Trailer Repair Inc. is our unwavering commitment to keeping the supply chain moving, one honest repair at a time.
