How long will my things take to reach Canada?

PACK & SEND have both air and sea services to get goods into Canada. The time these services takes to reach Canada is always unpredictable as a result of customs clearance. We would estimate goods going to Canada to take 5-7 days by air and 8-10 weeks by sea.
