The sooner you need a parcel delivered, the more it will cost you regardless of which carrier you select for the job. But substantial savings can be had by extending the transit time by as little as a few days.
And if time is of little concern, then shipping by sea freight will further reduce your shipping costs; however, the parcel may take a month or more to reach the recipient.
Below we present a table that demonstrates the impact of delivery times on shipping rates.
As shown above, a delivery of 1.5 business days would cost $872 CAD while one of nine business days reduces the rate to $258 CAD. But you no doubt noticed two numbers for most options, and that gets discussed next.
