Misc Help me with ammo shipping pls

okay pls help me. We're looking to get into shipping ammo at Uxbridge Arms. I know Canada Post cannot ship ammo, but does anyone have recommendations? I'm thinking UPS is best, but the paperwork with them is wild. I have to set up a contract with them, but i dont know if anyone has had better experiences with other companies, pls let me know

I've received ammo from Purolator. Could be worth looking into.

Need to have a business account to ship ammo, not impossible but takes a minute to get setup.

Sounds like it could be easier than ups based on what OP said. I like Purolator personally they've always delivered on time, and actually knock for signatures

Oh yea, 1000%, I've had experience with both and Purolator is better by far. Ups had me pulling my hair out. Purolator also has a "Chain of Signature" service (again only for business accounts) where basically if someone doesn't have hands on the package it's locked in a cage. I've never seen it used/wonder why they don't do more business with firearms

honestly everything you guys said actually looks super promising so I'm gonna look into it, I've also personally had issues with ups before so I'm kinda looking for any real alternative
