What’s the Cheapest Way to Ship from Canada to the U.S.?<\/h1>

We compare popular shipping options including Canada Post, UPS, and Chit Chats to find the cheapest way to ship from Canada to the U.S.<\/p><\/div><\/div>

Many Canadian entrepreneurs have great success expanding their reach to the United States. It\u2019s no wonder as they are not only our closest neighbour but also our biggest trading partner. However, reaching the U.S. market can be extremely expensive. So what is the cheapest way to ship from Canada to the U.S.? Chit Chats offers affordable options that make cheap shipping a reality not only from Canada to the U.S. but worldwide and even domestically. We\u2019re constantly innovating our services to provide Canadian entrepreneurs with shipping solutions that cut the hassle and reduce shipping costs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To show how much you\u2019ll save we\u2019ll compare our most cost effective postage types with that of our competitors so you can see for yourself! And if you\u2019re not already a Chit Chats member then join now and get $5 in account credit instantly<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this post, we\u2019ll calculate the cost of a package sent from Toronto to Beverly Hills. The package dimensions will be 6\u2033 by 6\u2033 by 2\u2033 with a weight of 1 lb. We\u2019ll also try to compare apples to apples. A cheaper rate is nice, but you probably also want tracking and\/or insurance for your parcel. We\u2019ll break things down with that in mind, as well as the ease of access to these shipping services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Canada Post: Not the Cheapest Shipping<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Canada Post is the most traditional way for Canadians to ship their packages. For shipments under 2 kg, you can use Tracked Packet\u2122\u2013 USA<\/a> to send small and lightweight items to the U.S. within 4-7 business days. Another option is Small Packet\u2122 USA \u2013 Air<\/a> which takes about 5-8 days, but will be a little cheaper. One thing to be aware is that the Small Packet does not include tracking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For our sample package, the Small Packet option<\/strong> would cost $22.99<\/strong> while the Tracked Packet option<\/strong> would cost $26.52<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Courier Services<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There are several courier services available\u2014FedEx and UPS for example\u2014that can be helpful options for getting your packages where they need to go. The rates for these services can vary greatly depending on the region and package type, making it difficult to compare them one to one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, there are a few online services that help you find the best rate for these couriers. Both SecureShip<\/a> and NetParcel<\/a> allow you to compare rates and then print shipping labels from your home. Comparing these two services, the cheapest courier service for our route is going to be UPS. Secureship found a rate of $20.37 <\/strong>while NetParcel found a rate of $19.57.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chit Chats: The Cheapest Shipping from Canada to US?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
