General Delivery Methods and Guidelines
Each time you submit a purchase requisition, your required delivery time must be specified in the "date required" section. Purchasing will then request a quote accordingly. Each shipment will depend on how big it is and how it is being sent. You can work on this general guide:
- Smaller shipments via courier service (Purolator, UPS, Canpar, Fedex, Loomis)
- Ground shipment 5 - 7 business days (note, this does not include weekend days)
- Express shipment 2 - 3 business days depending on location of vendor (2 days for western provinces, 3 days for eastern and/or US)
- Larger shipments via trucking companies (Overland, Clark Freightways, Van Kam), 2 - 7 business days depending on location of vendor (2 - 3 days for western provinces, more for eastern and / or US).
All shipments from outside Canada, including US, will take longer and may be delayed during customs clearance.
Anything other than a standard or ground shipping method will cost more, so this needs to be factored into your total estimate when preparing a requisition.
