How it works
Tell us what you are sending and where in the US it is going. We confirm a flat price and the best service level for your timeline.
We collect from your door anywhere across the GTA, with no drop-off or depot visit needed.
We prepare the commercial invoice and customs documentation so your shipment is declared correctly and clears US Customs and Border Protection smoothly.
Your shipment crosses the border and travels to the destination address in the US, and you can follow it through to delivery.
What you can send
Contracts, legal papers and business documents. Documents are the quickest and simplest to send across the border.
Clothing, personal items and gifts for family and friends in the US. We help you pack so they arrive safely.
Product samples, e-commerce orders, spare parts and B2B shipments, with the commercial invoice and customs handled.
For pallets and freight to the US, our group freight division arranges cross-border road transport with one point of contact.
Pricing depends on the size and weight of your shipment, the service level you choose and the destination in the US. We quote a clear, flat price before we collect, so you know the cost up front with no surprises. 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. Call (647) 534-4630 or use the quote form for a price in minutes.
Every shipment entering the United States is assessed by US Customs and Border Protection (CBP). Duties and taxes are set by CBP based on the type of goods, their declared value and their country of origin, not by us. Most shipments travel with a commercial or proforma invoice describing the contents and value, and we prepare this so the shipment is declared correctly. Documents are usually the simplest to clear. The rules on low-value shipments have changed in recent years, so rather than quote a threshold that may be out of date, we advise on exactly what applies to your specific parcel when you book.
Some items are restricted or prohibited for cross-border shipping and for import into the US. 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.
Standard shipments do not include insurance coverage. Additional coverage is available through a third-party insurance provider for customers who want it. Ask us about the options when you book.
We are a family-owned Brampton courier, and Canada to the US is the lane we run most. You get door pickup across the GTA, honest flat pricing, the border paperwork handled, and a real person on the phone. For businesses shipping regularly, we set up recurring pickups so cross-border shipping is one less thing to manage.
The US is one of the fastest lanes from Canada. Express options suit urgent documents and time-sensitive parcels, while economy costs less over a slightly longer window. We confirm the estimated transit time for your shipment when you book.
Around the winter holidays and major sale periods, cross-border volumes and border processing get busier. Send a little earlier and book your pickup ahead so your shipment arrives on time.

“I have sent many couriers from here and they have always reached their destination on time. The owner always pays attention to any call I make to enquire about the packages sent. He tracks it down personally and gives the latest update if anything is delayed. Good customer service!”
