Shipping to Canada

[Darko]

I'm just curious. You folks that have shipped kettles to Canada, what is the typical shipping cost? USPS, UPS, FedEx... what's better?

From the US Fedex is expensive.  Good for @SixZeroFour he has a US address also.

It might come down to a difference of a few dollars here-and-there.
I have received via UPS and FedEx, and I think FedEx may have been a little better.
Use a zip code and get some estimates on the site of each courier.
 
I have shipped some SJs to the US and I prefer using FedEx Ground.

I am @MrHoss US address, not sure how much is saved but it is always nice to get a visit with him.

I'm very lucky to live only 20min from the border so a PO box saves me hundreds of dollars a year in shipping costs. Large boxes are already expensive and as soon as it crosses a border expect that to nearly double due to duty, taxes and brokerage. Some businesses can ship cross border a lot cheaper but residential shipments are always nasty.

Price wise UPS and FedEx are generally pretty close. I prefer FedEx between the two if you have the choice.

@Darko . You're not too far from the border.  Maybe set-up a PO box across the ditch (Niagara River).
Pickings are slim here in Ontario, unless you like 3-4 year old black OTS's ….

I actually have a place I can go across the ditch. I just need to get a new passport.
