Update on Parcel Services Available at The Computer Place
As many of you may know, we are now offering parcel drop-off and pickup services here at The Computer Place.
After careful consideration, we have chosen to keep our pricing simple and transparent by offering a flat-rate fee of $2 per parcel (up to 50 lbs) rather than separating charges for receiving, handling, storage, and processing.
For Purolator parcels, this same flat-rate fee will apply while our agreement with Purolator is being finalized.
For parcels over 50 lbs, our standard fee is $5 per parcel. Due to limited storage space, please contact us in advance to make arrangements for larger items. Without prior arrangements, we may not be able to accept these parcels.
To help us provide efficient and reliable service, please follow the guidelines below:
