A draft capacity of roughly 8 metres lets Picton Terminals on Lake Ontario receive substantial bulk carriers, even though the port itself remains a small facility by Great Lakes standards (UN/LOCODE CA PIC). Cargo handled is dominated by road salt, aggregates, farm products and new or recycled scrap steel rather than containers. The terminal operates around the clock, providing storage and loading services to the mining, agriculture and construction industries. Great Lakes and Saint Lawrence Seaway access connects Picton to international shipping lanes, while container or RoRo freight is typically routed through the larger ports of Toronto or Hamilton. Import clearance follows standard Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) procedures common to Great Lakes ports.
