Hi all, I found a pair of fenders in Whitchurch-Stouffville area that I'd like to purchase, but I don't know how to go about arranging shipping remotely back to Alberta. I use Roseneau Transport for work in Western Canada and they're affiliated with GLS in Ontario. I've also heard Fastenal is a cost-effective option for shipping. Any suggestions or advice is greatly appreciated.
If you trust Roseneau you should be able to set it up through your local agent. I'm in the states down South west of you but I used to get a lot of shipments from Northwest US suppliers by Harbor freight and set up hauling pieces from the east coast with them and the companies they worked with through the local office. It looks like you may be SOL on Fastenal as most likely the two eastern stores are part of the eastern US stores and aren't able to ship store to store to the western stores just as it happens in the US
I use Manitoulan transport, if sent hoods etc from Alberta to Ontario on different occasions and never had a problem. If you call they will give you a quote and are super easy to deal with.
Thanks, I might contact Roseneau to ask for a quote. Thanks! Yeah I'm not sure how the supply chain works for Fastenal, but it is certainly no man's land between Ontario and Alberta.
Nope they don’t seem to care, I wrapped it in cardboard to protect it but I got a 8 3/4” center section from down south just loose. No box nothing. I have used them lots and had zero trouble.
I’ve used DHL twice one for motor from Bc to Ottawa and one for trans . Needs to be on a skid cause those guys won’t lift lol
