The Hayes Manufacturing Company Limited was a Vancouver-based Canadian manufacturer of heavy trucks. Founded in 1920, Hayes built both highway and off-road trucks, particularly for the logging industry. Hayes also manufactured buses. The Signal Company acquired a controlling stake in the company in 1969, and in 1971 renamed it Hayes Trucks. In 1975, Signal sold the company to Paccar, which closed the Hayes plants.
