Shipping From Canada To USA?

[CohibaMan]

Sent off a package Tuesday to the USA and asked the postal clerk for the cheapest way to send that would offer a tracking number. I was told Expedited was my best option as it would get there reasonably fast and had the tracking number. I'm just wondering if this was the best way to send or next time I should do it a different way? Thanks!

You got it cased - just remember to pack it well i.e. ziplocked, well padded, and maybe a humidification device, water pillow etc.

I've sent packages just about every way Canada Post offers...
Small package surface, small package air, expedited parcel...etc.
No matter what they tell you it takes about the same time...
I've had expedited packages showing up on their tracking site as sitting in the sorting depot up here, after they have been delivered....
The only thing expedited gets you , is a tracking number to claim against when they lose it....
All said, it usually takes about ten days....

For packages, I've found FedEx ground the cheapest and general gets anywhere in the USA in 5 days, at the most.
