-          Depending on your shipping selection, orders typically take between 1-7days after being posted.

Shipping to the United States (Lower 48)

-We're now including free shipping with all orders to the USA.   **This free shipping does not include brokerage fees, duties, tariffs or any taxes.** 

-BROKERAGE FEES: Most shipping companies now charge a fee to handle the import documentation of a shipment.   Typically brokerage fees are in the range of $30-40per shipment but may vary, the purchaser is responsible to pay these fees.   

-TARIFFS:  Wilboro products are USMCA compliant and as of June 1st 2025 and should not incur any tariffs*

*The tariff situation between Canada and the USA has been somewhat volatile this past year and while things are currently stable, changes could happen at any time and this information could be out of date.     If changes are to happen to the trade situation Wilboro will not be able to cover any additional charges/taxes/tariffs.   The onus to research and pay these potential fees is on the purchaser. This is not an ideal situation, however it's out of our control and we will have to proceed this way for the foreseeable future. 

The following information below could be helpful as a guide, but we cannot guarantee if it's up to date or still applies:

  • From the CPB:  De minimis provides admission of articles free of duty and of any tax imposed on or by reason of importation, but the aggregate fair retail value in the country of shipment of articles imported by one person on one day and exempted from the payment of duty shall not exceed $800USD.
  • Wilboro items do qualify under the USMCA agreement (if it's being honoured).
  • Most shipments will go out via UPS Standard Service or Canada Post. We do retain the right to choose alternate shipping options. Carrier information and tracking numbers will be emailed to you once the package ships.
