We have some embedded experts here and I have 2 large chairs I want to ship from NY to Halifax. No one knows more about shipping that motorcycle people. I've never shipped anything across a border and am wondering what I am up against and the best way to do it. I used UShip to ship a Cello from Houston to NYC and it was great. Guy picked it up in a Sprinter van . . .and was in NYC 2 days later. The wild card here seems to be COVID and crossing the border. Any thoughts? |

Import tariffs are kind of stupid crossing the border, might be a problem. Just another reason for an expert. |

How large is a "large chair"? Will they be packaged, or loose? Weight? |

Tell me more about the chairs. They may or may not require customs clearance... If it does, you can clear things yourself using ClearIt and be iussued a PARS number so almost anybody can carry your goods. I need zip codes for the pickup and delivery locations as well... I've got Russians with sprinter vans in the Bronx who can put a rush on this for you. |
