| Advantages of a US Mailing and Shipping Address |
There are many reasons for having a US Street address for mailing and shipping.
First is convenience and necessity. For individuals or businesses, the ability to ship and receive items between customers or stores in the United States can either be a simple convenienve at some times, and an absolute requirement at others. Some things are simply not available in Canada, or the pricing is not within your budget to buy domestically and still remain competitive with other business who are also taking advantage of lower prices which may be found in the U.S. Second; MANY businesses in the U.S. will provide FREE shipping on orders within the United States. Compared to shipping internationally into Canada, this can be a very large saving. And of course, the larger the order, or the more frequent, the more money you will save by using a U.S. shipping address. Even after factoring in our service fees, you should expect to see a meaningful difference between your costs by shipping your items to our warehouse or mailroom. Third is time. Domestic shipments in the United States are usually handled a bit quicker in most circumstances. Even if they are expedited however, international shipments are generaly delayed at the border while customs paperwork is finished and presented. Customs paperwork is something you, including small businesses, can do yourself. And, when you do it yourself, it is far less costly (its free actually) and usually a LOT faster than a customs broker will do it for you when your goods are shipped internationally on a common carrier. Fourth is reliable and consistent delivery. The U.S. Postal service provides very predictable mail delivery. It is also a LOT less expensive to have mail delivery domestically, just like shipping. IN fact, magazines which you can subscribe to may charge more than double or tripple the rate for mailing to Canada than for a US Mailing Address. Two magazine subscriptions alone could possibly pay for a mailbox rental, allowing you to use that mailing address for more things and bigger savings. It simply makes sense to let us help you save dollars. |
