Carrier availability depends on destination, package size and weight, and service level. Carrier names are trademarks of their owners and are listed to describe the services we can ship with.
Why multi-carrier shipping matters in Canada
Canada is huge and carrier networks vary by region. A last-mile courier may be cheapest inside Toronto or Montréal, Canada Post may be the only option for a rural address, and a cross-border consolidator may beat everyone for a light parcel to the US.
Having several carriers also protects your business when one network is disrupted — something Canadian sellers learned during recent postal labour disruptions.
