In addition, Secureship has assembled a variety of shipping information for anyone who wants to learn more about shipping parcels in general and tricks of the trade that will lower your costs and save you time and shipping fuss.
Canada Post’s box-free label-free (BFLF) returns benefit merchants because it is a simple-to-use service for customers, which leads to repeat customers and increased sales over the long term. Since late 2024, Canada Post’s eCommerce partners are able to quickly and seamlessly integrate BFLF options into their returns strategy. And once that is done, their customers will be able to make returns on eligible goods (mostly clothing, shoes, and accessories) at no cost to them with postal employees packing and re-labelling the package.
But there are more ways for Canadians to save on shipping costs: Take advantage of Secureship’s easy-to-use online calculator, which will quickly find you various shipping options with carriers that service the world, and potentially save you up to 50% of your shipping costs.
