Just a heads up, we have reached our tipping point with Canpar's poor service.

We are currently signing up with a new carrier who will ship ammo.

Please be patient, ammo orders may ship a bit slower while we switch over.

Canpar is more of a B2B service..

Lot of hick up arise when it is ship to residental.

Their Web tracking is delay, and dont even bother calling customer service, they don't exist :p

We use them for work, but rarely use it to ship to residential
 
Nothing can be worse than Dicom, it's literally gambling that your box might/might not show.

Have you tried freightcom.com? I use them for all my biz shipping, it's like a bidding service for all the couriers. I use Canpar/Loomis a lot (through freightcom) but yes it's mostly for B2B but not always.
 
I've had fantastic service with Purolator. Same day pickup, well at least here in SW Ont.

I think Canpar may be going through some growing pains.

In my area they are expanding rapidly. As are the competition.
 
They regularly deliver to me, and tbh, they were the shining beacon during covid.... CPC #2, then PCL and UPS waaaaaaay down at the bottom.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^this right here.

The other day I was waiting for UPS.
Missed him last Friday- but saw his footprints in the snow where he walked up to my front door - then walked away?
Not sure why he did not leave the package - there was no sig required. The tracking said "extreme weather delayed" - that was BS
He came back on Monday....stupid
 
CanPar is super good for me . Their tracking isn’t the greatest. The parcel is usually in the house when they say it just left the depot. All parcel delivery services are “run and gun”

I'd rather Canada Post any day of the week over Canpar. That speaks volumes.

I'm the exact opposite !

Canada Post is horrible while the canpar guy phones me first before coming to drop off my package. I have lost track at how many packages have come by Canada Post to my town then sat somewhere then got sent back to sender because they didn't deliver it. I keep hearing all this omg canada post left a package at my door errrrrmmmmaaaaggggaawwwddddd Packages for me make it to my town then either I take a few days of my own personal time to track them down and go pick up my delivery or they end up getting sent back never being delivered its not even funny anymore I expect to get maybe 3 out of 10 packages that get sent canada post. Last canpar delivery the guy phoned I told him I was at work till late and he still came over at 10pm to drop it off to me
 
Thank god! Any time ive been delivered to by Canpar, the damn thing gets lost, delivered to a wrong address in a wrong city and opened in a brewery so I had to pick it up, or taken to a major city and I've had to spend a hundred bucks in gas to go get the damn order.

They shut down completely in Calgary. There was only one drop off point and it's closed now.

Not sure where they're "growing"?
 
Two deliveries from Canpar ...well two non deliveries that then tells me to pick up at the depot which is literally the furthest location possible AND limited hours so all in all a terrible company before and currently.

Yeah Canada Post is horrible for me too but almost every time I had to use Canpar it's a headache and a half.
 
I vote for UPS.
UPS would deliver to one of their UPS store so that I don't have to sit around at home all day waiting for the package.
I would only buy ammo from dealer that ship UPS.
 
We have been shipping with Canpar for nearly a decade and I just had to get a phone number to speak to a real human off a reddit sub form because they don't even provide us with correct contact info to help our customers get their packages.
