Shipments from Outside of Canada
We love getting shipments from International charity knitters and crocheters. However, we have had problems with some parcels getting stuck in customs or being assessed large duty charges. When completing the Customs Declaration Form please clearly indicate Charity Knitting and assess the parcel with a low value. (Other charities assign a value of 50 cents per item. Therefore 10 items would be $5 value.) In our experience parcels with a declared value of $20 or less and identified as charity knitting/crochet tend to sail through Customs with no problems and no extra fees.
In addition, if you have a large shipment of items coming to us from an International source, we may instruct you to ship directly to the target community. Though this means that we do not get to see your beautiful items, it does save on shipping expenses and hassles. Please contact us before shipping so we can give you the proper final destination address.
