    We Can Help When Other Companies Can’t

    World Cargo delivers expert solutions specifically designed for heavy item shipping and intricate logistical challenges. While standard mail carriers rely on automated belts for small parcels, we operate differently. We don’t just move boxes; we engineer transportation strategies for oversized shipments that traditional couriers simply cannot handle. As a dedicated large package shipping company, we possess the infrastructure, network, and expertise to transport your goods with the care and precision they require.

    I had a great experience with the shipping of my daughters car across Canada. From the pick up to drop off this company is A+. Ian and the crew answered all of my calls and emails in a timely manner and all my belongings were safe and sound upon arrival. I always read reviews as I wanted to feel comfortable handing my possessions over to a company that I’ve never done business with and just want everyone that is considering shipping a car to know my experience was awesome!!

    Get Answers To Common Questions

    What do I do if my package is too big for UPS and Canada Post?

    If your item exceeds the weight and size limits of standard couriers, you need a freight forwarder like World Cargo. Canada Post generally has a weight limit of 66 lbs (30 kg), while UPS and FedEx typically cap shipments at 150 lbs (68 kg) or 108 inches in length. Once your shipment exceeds these dimensions, it is classified as freight. We specialize in moving these large shipments via pallet, crate, or container, ensuring they reach their destination safely without the strict size restrictions of a courier.

    Why should I use World Cargo instead of a standard courier like DHL or FedEx?

    Standard couriers like DHL, FedEx, and Purolator utilize automated conveyor belts designed for uniform, small parcels. When you attempt to ship oversized freight or heavy items through them, you often face exorbitant “oversize” surcharges or outright rejection. World Cargo is a dedicated large package shipping company. We don’t use conveyor belts; we use dedicated freight networks designed specifically for large, heavy, and awkward cargo, often saving you money and reducing the risk of damage.

    I have a small to regular-sized shipment; can you help me?

    No, our services are specifically geared towards large shipments and commercial freight. We are a freight forwarder, not a courier service. If your item can be carried by one person or fits in a standard cardboard box, a courier service will be your fastest and most economical option. We are the best fit when your shipment is too large, heavy, or complex for those standard services to handle.

    How is the cost calculated for heavy item shipping?

    World Cargo coordinates a wide range of shipments, including personal cargo and commercial freight. This may include consolidated shipments, larger cargo moves, and ongoing business freight. Each shipment is reviewed individually to determine the most suitable transport method, routing, and handling requirements based on size, destination, and timing.
