How it works
Tell us what you are sending and where in the UAE it is going. We confirm a flat price and the right service level.
We collect from your door across the GTA, so there is no drop-off point or depot to find.
We complete the export and import documentation your shipment needs, so it is declared correctly.
Your shipment travels to Dubai and on to the destination address, and you can follow it through.
What you can send
Legal papers, academic transcripts, immigration and business documents. Documents move fastest and clear customs most easily.
Clothing, shoes, toys, home goods and gifts for weddings, Eid and family celebrations. We help you pack so they arrive intact.
Books, kitchenware, textiles and belongings, a practical alternative to airline excess baggage when you are travelling or relocating.
Product samples, spare parts and business shipments, with the documentation and customs handled.
The price depends on the size and weight of your shipment, the service level you choose and where in the UAE it is going. We quote a clear, flat price before we collect. For larger boxes the charge is based on whichever is greater, the actual weight or the dimensional (volumetric) weight, so packing efficiently keeps the cost down. Use the quote form or call (647) 534-4630 for a price in minutes.
Every shipment entering the UAE is assessed by the customs authority there. Duties and taxes are set by them, not by us, and depend on the type of goods and their declared value. Documents are usually straightforward, gifts and personal effects are assessed on value, and commercial imports carry additional requirements. Tell us what you are sending and who is receiving it, and we will confirm what is needed before you pack.
Some items are restricted or prohibited for international shipping and for import into the UAE, and the restricted list changes from time to time. If you are unsure about anything on your list, ask us before you pack and we will check it for you.
Good packing protects your items and helps them clear customs without fuss. A few simple steps make all the difference, and we can supply materials and advice.
You get door pickup across the GTA, honest flat pricing agreed before we collect, the customs paperwork prepared for you, and a real person who answers the phone. We are a family-owned Brampton courier, not a call centre, so the person who quotes your shipment is the person you can ask about it later.
Transit time depends on the service level and the destination in the UAE. Express options are fastest for urgent items, while economy costs less and takes longer. Clearance times vary, so we confirm a realistic window when we quote rather than promising a date we cannot control.
Volumes rise before Ramadan and Eid and through the winter months, and customs is busier with them. Send a week or two earlier than usual so your parcel arrives in good time.
Reviews
“I sent a couple of parcels through DTDC to India. It is way cheaper and still quick compared to any other shipping service. The process is simple and easy too. 1000% recommended.”
“The most credible, and the cheapest courier services in the town. Must try. They are trustworthy, transparent and polite.”
“The service is fast and very reasonable. The team is super helpful and has eased my worries of sending parcels home on time. I have been a customer with Smart Save for a couple of years now and will continue to do so, because I don't think any other courier service will match up to the price. Smart Save team, you're the best!”
