Here are the figures for UPS brokerage fees charged to shipments from the USA to Canada. I contacted UPS Canada at 1-800-263-8125 and got them.The folks at this number can also give out information on dutys, ect. Figures are in Canadian dollars. Figure is for the value of item shipped to Canada. $0 - $20 no brokerage fees $20 - $40 @ $18 brokerage fee 40 - $100 @ $31 brokerage fee $100 - $200 @ $42 brokerage fee $200 - $350 @ $52 brokerage fees I have found that when shipping heavy items, weighing about 100# or more, UPS is still a bit cheaper than the USPS.
