There is an abundance of things to see and do in Canada. Few countries can boast the number and range of natural wonders that Canada does. With more coastline than any other country, mountain ranges, lakes, forests, arctic and even a small amount of desert; Canada truly has an incredibly diverse landscape packed full of surprises to explore.
Reasons My Baggage customers ship to Canada:
The journey to Canada is long-haul and, unsurprisingly, there are those who wish to avoid the nightmare of hauling their suitcase or heavy bags on such a long, tedious journey; from their home and through train stations, taxis and airports. Thankfully, My Baggage’s convenient and affordable services make for the perfect alternative to airline baggage.
When you book a bag on your flight, you need to keep in mind your airline’s restrictive, less-than-generous baggage weight allowances when packing up all of your personal belongings. It means you may have to make the sacrifice that no one wants to make; leaving many of your beloved personal belongings behind. Even then, you might still be faced with a nasty surprise at the check-in desk, meaning you’ll have to cough up extortionate excess baggage fees. When travelling long-haul, it’s not an ideal situation.
Thankfully, My Baggage allows you to ship a massive 30kg/66lbs per suitcase at fantastic low rates. You also have the option to pay extra for even heavier bags, if you need to. That means you’ll never have to leave any of your beloved possessions behind again.
If you’re a student travelling to Canada to study abroad, or perhaps if you are emigrating with your family; our generous baggage weight allowance and your ability to send as many items as you like with us can come in particularly useful. It allows you to bring more possessions with you than if you were simply relying on a few checked pieces of luggage.
Shipping your excess baggage to Canada with My Baggage also makes that dreaded, tedious wait for the appearance of your suitcase at the luggage carousel in the airport a thing of the past. (Not to mention the possibility of your suitcase not appearing at all, which is every traveller’s worst nightmare!) My Baggage ships your luggage quickly and safely.
Shipping your oversized items to Canada with My Baggage is the easiest way to avoid extortionate oversized/overweight baggage fees from your airline. We help you to avoid having to haul your skiing gear or similarly oversized item from home and through train stations, taxis and airports. Sending oversized items with My Baggage is an efficient and cost-effective way of getting your items to their overseas destination quickly and safely.
Most common oversized items sent to Canada:
Note: if you are shipping your bicycle to Canada with My Baggage, it will need to be dismantled and packaged up in a box so that we can transport it easily and safely. Your local bicycle shop should be more than happy to do this for you for a small fee.

I have used My Baggage several times and each time it has been hassle-free and good value. At the heart of this is the excellent service from DHL, who are the courier firm MB use. I use DHL Express weekly for work and they are highly reliable and easy to communicate with incase of any problems. My Baggage provides a user friendly way for personal use of the DHL service, without much of a mark-up. Highly recommend.

Really quick and handy service. I am a student moving back home and the couriers pick up and drop off your bags at your door. They came first thing in the morning and delivered my bags a day early. Would recommend to everyone

The service is fast and straightforward. The only downside is that the carrier wasn't able to pick up the item at the designated place, which cause me extra time to deliver to the nearby DHL service point.

I received my box the next day!! Just make sure to be 100% accurate on dimensions, weight, both addresses and the interesting weird part is they want you to leave the box downstairs, somewhere accessible and my sis lives in a sketchy part of brooklyn so it could've been stolen but it was fine. You're not allowed to change the address or contact info after submitting it but it all went through and I got it the very next day here in London. I had a problem with a form but Mark the customer representative was so quick to respond and helped me. Yay now I have the rest of my stuff finally in my new home! I would use them again.

However, when sending food to Canada, your shipment can experience issues and/or major delays if not properly researched prior to sending. All food imports are controlled by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) and they often require some additional paperwork to be attached to your food parcel.
What type of packaging can be used?

We advise against using fragile or expensive suitcases, as they are not covered by our compensation cover. We also recommend that you tape over any handles, etc to protect them.
