Shipping Basics
We ship via the post office (Canada
Post). When you check out with the items you have chosen in our shopping cart system, you
will come to a shipping page. On that page, is the shipping cost for sending your item(s).
This shipping cost depends on your package weight, size, destination, and the
shipping service you choose. The shipping cost is calculated by the Canada Post website
using the weights and measurements of the items on our website. The shipping cost you
receive from the Canada Post website is fairly accurate to what our cost is for shipping
the item to you.
Canada Post offers a variety of
shipping options that you can choose from. On the shipping page there is a drop-down list
of shipping options available for the destination of the package. The following are the
shipping options available for each destination (note: the small package option may not be
available for larger orders were we require insurance). Each shipping option below has the
number of business days the package will be delivered in. Please add two business
days for packaging to these figures (this is already included in the shipping quote on the
shipping page).
