Appliances Shipping Cost from Calgary to Douala

To ship a washer and dryer, you need to prepare them by cleaning, disconnecting, and securing the drum (washer), then pack them securely on a pallet with plenty of padding (blankets, foam), and finally use a freight or specialized appliance shipper like FedEx LTL or U-Ship, as they're too big for standard carriers, ensuring they're strapped tightly but not overly so.

For light shipments, USPS and UPS often offer the cheapest way to ship to Canada, especially under 5 lbs. Once USPS shipments cross the border, they're delivered by Canada Post.

To ship boxes internationally, choose a carrier like USPS, FedEx, or a specialized service, pack securely (especially hollow items!), complete detailed customs forms, and select a service based on speed (Express for fast, Priority for balanced, First-Class for lighter/cheaper). Key steps involve using appropriate packaging, understanding weight/size limits (e.g., USPS flat rates up to 20 lbs, others up to 70 lbs), and ensuring accurate customs info for smooth delivery.
