Shipping Details
We do our best to get your orders out as fast as we can, as we realize you have deadlines for your customers/students. To avoid delays, please choose the exact product you require.
For most town and cities, we ship by UPS, so that you can receive your order sooner. Please be sure to include street address, if available. For rural area and box numbers, we use Canada Post, as UPS cannot deliver to them.
We are now offering FREE shipping on all orders over $200 (before shipping and tax). This offer does not apply to bulk or COD orders.
For orders less than $100 (before shipping and tax), actual freight charages will be charged. (Minimum shipping charge of $6.95.) For orders over $100, but less than $200, $6.95 will be charged.
All orders outside of Canada will be charged the actual shipping costs, no matter the order total.
For orders in bulk (quantities/price), the actual freight amount will be charged, as we cannot subsidize the extra cost of shipping. This applies to orders where 50% or more of the order is bulk.
* ALL COD orders MUST be paid by Certified Cheque or Money Order. ALL COD orders are subject to a surcharge of $9.00.
