best place to ship international truck freight.
« on: November 19, 2011, 06:47:43 AM »
I'm just about to order up a set of tires and wheels which will be shipped international truck freight from 4wheelparts.com I dont want to ship to the border as its a pain in my arse to go and get it especially when i'm on a rotation at work. Not to mention it will cost me at least a tank of fuel to drive down there and back plus storage fees. I would rather just have it shipped to Calgary as shipping wont be much more than what its going to cost me to drive down there. would they deliver international truck freight to a house? or is there a place in Calgary I could ship to. I'm sure duty and fee will have to be paid once delivered.

anyone had anything shipped freight to their house?

They'll probably want a commercial adress with a loading dock or forklift available.
I followed a rainbow out to a garage and found a leprichaun. The rainbow ended in a potted cactus on his porch, but there was no gold :(

I priced out tires from NSOR a few years ago and they were willing to ship 36" tires to my house.

i was thinking I might order this week. it will be either from

http://www.ntwonline.com/

or

http://www.4wheelparts.com

depending who has it in stock and how long for backorder if it comes down to that. Ive decided the 36" IROK's are not big enough for my axles lol, so i'm going with the 39.5" IROK's. its Immortal's fault
