shipping a motor to sask?

[baba booey]

Looking for the most cost affective way to ship a motor from the states to canada (sask). Any ideas??

Thanks

I've shipped engines.

Wrap it over and over in bubble wrap, put it in a rubbermade tub, fill it with packing styrofoam, duct tape it shut. MAJOR duct tape.

UPS is probably best.

Not to canada, brokerage fees are ridiculous.

USPS will likely be your best bet. Usually the cheapest. Where abouts in the states is it coming from and where abouts in saskatchewan is it going?

Somehow I ended up with UPS in my post...I really was trying to say USPS. Autocorrected on my phone this morning.


I've shipped pistons to Europe and boxes back and forth to Canada. USPS was definately the only shipper I've used for them. Tracking doesn't seem to work outside of US borders, but other than that...it was the only shipper I could get internationally for a reasonable price.

UPS, Fedex, etc. are jokes, especially shipping between Canada/US. No I don't wanna pay extra upon delivery! And no I don't wanna drive across the city to pick up my package during normal work hours! Most people actually have jobs you know!
Team USPS/Canada Post all the way!
