Poster: A snowHead
|
My situation is as following. I am currently in Mexico without any sort of ski equipment at all. Back in Sweden I got a full set ski equipment. I am going to Canada, Whistler in end of January and will stay there for 2 months. I thinking of shipping my skiis, boots to Canada and use it for whole season. As finished, I could ship it all home back to Sweden.
I have googled around looking for shpping information and found DHL, UPS, TNT and SendMyBag. Problem is it seems like I have to pay a fortune to ship them back and forth. That, different to others on Internet, which seems to get away fairly cheap. How do they do it?
DHL and UPS want like $400 CAD for one way.
TNT only ships for buisness
SendMyBag only ships from UK (I could ship my bags to their office in UK then forward it)
So my question is, how the heck do I find cheap shipping back and forth of boots & skis from Sweden to Canada?

I'd look at smaller shipping outfits in Sweden. I presume UPS etc. are shipping via air?

Hi Shipski
Sorry but my agents cant get anything near where you would need to be to make this competitive.
We could probably fly it to Vancouver at a reasonable cost but with clearance and delivery to Whistler its not going to be cheap.

I would buy and sell out there will be a lot less than trying to do the shipping and easier

I use the likes of Parcel2Go in the UK to compare various prices and options for shipping stuff, there may be a similar service in Sweden?
