Vancouver Shipping
If you've bought too much to easily carry home, you'll want to use one of the international shipping companies located in Vancouver to ship your packages home. If you plan to make large purchases (like beautiful furniture or antiques), it's useful to make arrangements with a shipping company before you leave home.
Companies with international shipping services in Canada:
MailBoxes Etc./UPS, various locations in Vancouver
Mail Boxes Etc. can ship packages internationally as well as send and
receive faxes while you're on the road.
Federal Express
We've used Fedex for shipping packages back from around the world. The service
is fast (from some countries, ground/boat can take months) and they do a
great job with fragile items. They'll provide boxes for you
free of charge, and their agents are able to help you understand customs
regulations for the destination country.
Kinkos
Kinkos can receive faxes, Fedex packages and take care of any business
needs while you're in Canada.
