Title: Shipping to the US Post by: rz5mark on September 02, 2023, 06:59:43 AM I have to ship a box to the US that is larger than Canada post will ship dimension wise. Any suggestions, DHL/Purolator...?

Title: Re: Shipping to the US Post by: Twisted_Twin on September 02, 2023, 03:24:13 PM DHL is a bunch of mouth-breathing idiots.
Purolator is owned by Canada Post but is too stupid to be able to deliver to a P.O. Box. UPS has the best chance of getting your stuff to you but you can't pay the customs fees online, you'll have to mail them a cheque (can you hear me back there in the 90's?). FedEx has slightly worse service than UPS but you can pay the customs fees online easily.

Title: Re: Shipping to the US Post by: Twisted_Twin on September 03, 2023, 06:33:19 PM I'm pretty sure I've paid UPS fees online. Tried to do it two weeks ago and was told I needed to set up an account with them. FedEx just lets you pay as a guest by using the invoice number, like any rational company should. Title: Re: Shipping to the US Post by: hardrockminer on September 04, 2023, 04:06:38 AM Correct. I have an account. Or had one. I got a notice a month or so ago that they were cancelling it because I don't use it enough.
