COVID has affected the lives of every North American. In the uncertainties of COVID, a wise choice would be to start early holiday planning.







As per Canada Post, 48 percent of Canadian shoppers plan to shop online exclusively. 54% said they would shop in October or early November. Long line up at the major stores can also be a factor for this switch. This implies that leading postal services will receive a lot of delivery requests in November. Despite this forecast, there would be many shoppers who resort to Last-minute Shopping and they want on time delivery.







It's a great opportunity for online sellers. But it's important to know the shipping cut off for all carriers before you put that estimated shipping date on your product. Or else, you will leave your customer waiting and unhappy.







How the various shipping carriers are planning for this situation







Canada Post is hiring 4000 seasonal employees and 1000 delivery vehicles. The holiday plan also includes weekend delivery in certain communities, adding pickup store locations and hours of operation.







As an online seller, you have to consider the demand surge during this period and the additional prices for deliveries. Make sure your profit is not eroded completely by the Holiday Shipping Charges of carriers. Here are some important tips for online sellers to take into consideration.
