What Our Customers Say

"Same-day Buffalo to Toronto — ground-air hybrid"

ExFreight’s hybrid ground-air model gets our Rochester production to Toronto in 4 hours flat. Truck to Buffalo, quick air hop or bridge crossing, then Canadian delivery. Fastest cross-border option available.

Emma Wilson

Quebec requires French labeling and documentation. ExFreight handles everything bilingually without extra charges. Our Montreal distributor and US suppliers both get proper documentation every time.

FAQS

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does air freight from USA to Canada take?
Direct air freight same-day to 1 day to Toronto (YYZ), Vancouver (YVR), Montreal (YUL). Express courier: 24 hours door-to-door. Consolidated air: 2–3 days. Ground-air hybrid: 4–12 hours for short lanes (Buffalo-Toronto, Detroit-Windsor). CBSA clearance adds a few hours for standard shipments.
Air freight: USD $2.50–$5.00/kg on direct cross-border flights — the cheapest international air lane globally. Express: $6–$12/kg for urgent cargo. Ground-air: from $1.50/kg for short lanes. GST 5% plus provincial HST/PST on customs value; most CUSMA-qualifying goods enter duty-free.
CBSA processes all imports. You need a Business Number (BN), RM account extension for imports, tariff classification, and customs value declaration. Permits from CFIA (food/plants), Health Canada (medicines), ISED (electronics). GST 5% plus HST/PST collected at border.
Toronto Pearson (YYZ) — 45%+ of US-Canada air trade, primary Ontario gateway. Vancouver (YVR) — Pacific gateway. Montreal (YUL) — Quebec and Atlantic Canada hub. Also Calgary (YYC), Edmonton (YEG), Winnipeg (YWG), Ottawa (YOW), Halifax (YHZ). ExFreight provides nationwide trucking.
Yes — Amazon.ca FBA from USA. Warehouse pickup, air transit, CBSA clearance, FBA delivery. FNSKU labeling same as US Amazon. Pallets: 48×40 inch North American standard. Need Canadian Business Number, RM import account, and GST/HST registration.
Yes — CUSMA (replaced NAFTA in 2020) eliminates tariffs on most North American-origin goods. Requires CUSMA certificate of origin (supplier self-certification). Most US-origin goods enter Canada duty-free. GST/HST still applies. ExFreight prepares CUSMA origin documentation at no extra cost.
Two options: (1) Direct cross-border air: JFK-YYZ 90 minutes, total transit same-day. (2) Ground-air hybrid via border bridges: 4–12 hours for short lanes. Direct air wins for long-haul (LAX-YYZ, MIA-YUL); hybrid wins for short-hauls (Buffalo-Toronto, Detroit-Windsor).
Minimal under CUSMA — Canada has few active anti-dumping measures on US-origin goods. Occasional measures on specific steel, agricultural, and specialty chemical products. Rates: 10–45%. Check CBSA SIMA (Special Import Measures Act) registry. ExFreight flags known categories during quoting.
