Alternatives to Canada Post

[kai2006]

Are there other any alternatives to Canada Post for shipping overseas (Europe, Australia, US etc), and also within Canada?

Seems their (Canada Post) are quite high even shipping within the country itself (taking an example of a 550g item).

Thanks

Purolator, UPS and Fed Ex.

Thanks. Have checked these 3, but the rates are higher than Canada Post. Also Purolator seems more for bulky items.

As mine are mostly end consumer (no bulk quantities), hence it's not very fesible to use these 3.

Appreciate some recommendations.

Then you need to establish an account, then you will be getting the discounts with them. The more you ship the bigger the discount off list price. If I were you, I would contact Purolator and talk to the local sales rep about it. If they think your business is going to grow they will get you decent rates... and mention you are talking with UPS too ;-) .
