Ups vs Canada post

Shipping my tv and probably 6-7 normal sized boxes nothing crazy heavy

Leaning towards Canada post? Anybody have any recommendations?


In my industry UPS, Loomis/DHL and Purolator are used for small boxes with DHL being the most popular.

If packages are ever lost it always seems to be UPS.

Just my experience.

That's what I've read yeah. There's no Purolator depots in my town anymore lmao. Might just go Canada post, I've read they're the cheapest, but slow. And speed is not a concern rn. We're doing the drive over a week.

So anyone from Toronto help me with some input?

Some of my buddies wanna go wonderland to kill time til dinner, would noon to 5pm be even worth driving all the way there? Dunno what other activities we can do as an alternative.

Plan so far for Saturday is like, arrive at 7am, drop off bags at 1hotel and check in later at 3pm. Head over to go space to chill there in the morning til noon since most places are closed in the morning. Gap from noon to 5pm not sure what to do, so wonderland? Grab dinner at some lobster tower place around 6pm then go Dt to bar hop and get wasted, headover to brass rail

Alot of driving... Worth renting big SUV for 6 of us or uber xl still cheaper?

Sounds like a good plan. Id rent the suv for the day.

Jus the boys? Or you got some girls with ya?
Other suggestion since youre going to be DT is to hit up the dispensary grab some joints and head over to High Park. Cherry blossoms full bloom rn. Toss a Frisbee and get high af.

That was were doing on weekend. Its free to go High Park

On a Saturday you'll hit traffic and maybe get to go on like 2-3 rides at Wonderland with the lines haha. Depends on how far you're coming from
