Serving Abbotsford from our Langley yard
Abbotsford has a strong trucking and agriculture base, and a lot of the drivers who call us from Abbotsford already know exactly why they're calling: a Class 1 or Class 3 licence opens up local trucking work without relocating. We don't have a campus inside Abbotsford itself, so Abbotsford students train at our Langley yard — about 25–30 minutes away via Highway 1, give or take traffic.
It's the same instructors, the same ICBC-approved MELT curriculum, and the same trucks that Langley and Surrey students use — nothing about training out of Langley is a "lesser" version of Tricon.

Every program Tricon offers is open to Abbotsford residents — there's no separate "Abbotsford program," just a short drive to Langley.

Most Abbotsford students come in via Highway 1 westbound — a straightforward, mostly highway drive. If you're weighing whether the commute is worth it, ask any current Abbotsford student: it's a short trip for a licence that opens up local trucking, construction and delivery work you can work close to home.
