We’re proud to now deliver a solution to address that need, offering even faster delivery for consumers in Canada.”

Offering economical international shipping solutions, PuroPost and PuroPost Plus supply delivery service to P.O. boxes, community mailboxes parcel lockers, and remote and rural location at no extra cost. Packages are hand delivered through the Canada Post postal network and are pre-cleared for entry into Canada, with and taxes and duties paid ahead of time.

Retail shoppers who are willing to spend a little extra to get their product quicker will be able to select PuroPost Plus as a shipping option by retailers that offer the service. In addition, retailers may utilize the service in order to guarantee shipments are delivered on time to maintain a level of service their customers expect, particularly during peak shipment seasons and during bad weather.
