Hey all,

When I leave next year I'll probably have a few rather large boxes of clothes and souvenirs to get home to Canada, as well as a bicycle.

Does anybody know the best way to go about this? Company names would be appreciated!

Thanks,
KN

Korea Post!

It's cheaper than any shipping company you'll find. Basically if you want to use a private shipping company the cost of shipping is likely to be more than the value of the items you want to send.

clothes, souvenirs, etc can go in the mail. Surface mail is cheap. I sent every item I owned home this way a year ago. With the Bicycle you'll probably have to bite the bullet and pay the airlines what they ask. It will still be cheaper than any shipping company I've talked to.....

Mind you there could be some cheap ones out there......just none that I've heard of....

PS. There are other threads on this topic. Why not search for 'shipping' in the search function?

Good Luck!

I agree with kyle,
There's a search button type in shipping and you'll be amazed what you come up with.

Thanks guys, I did indeed try the search, but I only came up with shipping to Aus and NZ, but nothing for Canada. Guess I'm not as proficient as you both Confused

There are shipping companies that advertise in the Korean Herald. I don't know the names but you can pick up a paper for 600won and check it out yourself.

I would assume that shipping companies that serve OZ/NZ would also serve Canada/US......not sure though.
