Shipping from the U.S. to Canada<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Canada is a great market to target for your ecommerce company. With a world-leading economy, Canada offers a high-income economy with customers who are willing to purchase new products. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the rise of ecommerce, more customers than ever before are making purchases online. And since Canada shares a border with the US, many US companies often include Canada in their marketing.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even better, shipping from the US to Canada is made even easier because of NAFTA. Both countries can freely ship products between their borders (with some exceptions that most ecommerce companies don\u2019t have to worry about). <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this guide to shipping from the US to Canada, you\u2019ll learn about the delivery options, rules, transit times and services that can help you expand your business into Canada and start selling internationally<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>

1. USPS<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

USPS is a good shipping option because of its flat-rate shipping options. Unlike the other couriers, you will only have to pay a flat rate depending on the <\/span>mail class<\/span><\/a> and package weight.  <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The USPS also has many locations in the US for dropping off packages. You can go to local post office locations or just drop packages off at a mailbox. If you want to save money on shipping and delivery time isn\u2019t a big priority for your customers, USPS is a great option for shipping. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, one major drawback to using USPS for Canadian shipping is that the packages are transferred to Canada Post once they arrive in Canada. This can add on a few extra delivery days due to customs clearance and needing a new tracking number supplied by the Canada Post system.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
