Different shipping options
With such a huge expanse of water between Canada and most of the rest of the world, youโd be forgiven for thinking it โremovedโ. Not to worry though, because it is actually an extremely accessible country where freight is concerned. Be it by air or sea, getting your belongings to the most apologetic nation on earth is nice and simple.
If youโre in a hurry then air is the quickest option, with most shipments arriving within three days. However, this speediness comes at a price, and the amount you can move is limited. If youโre looking for the most cost effective route and have time to spare, shipping to Canada by sea is by far your best option.
With international shipping, door-to-door delivery comes as standard, so even if you arenโt living close to one of the major ports getting your items to your new home shouldnโt be a problem. That said, you will have to allow a little more shipping time for the overland portion of the journey.
Major shipping routes
Given that Canada is connected to most of the rest of the world by sea, itโs no surprise that the sea is their best freight option. There are four major ports dotted along Canadaโs east and west coasts:
- Port Metro Vancouver
- Montreal
- Prince Rupert
- Halifax
Vancouverโs the busiest of the four, but even Halifax processes hundreds of thousands of containers a year. Wherever youโre moving to in Canada, getting your items shipped there should be a fairly straightforward process.
The cost of international shipping to Canada
The amount youโll pay to ship your belongings to Canada will depend on a few key factors - namely where youโre shipping from, the company you go with, and the type of container you go for.
For example, shipping your belongings from the UK isnโt going to be quite as affordable as moving from the US, because itโs much further away. And there further you have to ship your things, the more itโll cost.
