Default Shipping from Montreal to Cambridge

Hi everyone,

We have decided to move back to Cambridge, hence we need some of our stuff to be shipped there. When we moved to Canada we had around 100kg which we sent by post (DHL was pretty cheap and fast).
This time I'm estimating at least twice as much. Canada Post seems awfully expensive. Can anyone recommend a reliable and cheap moving company? We won't ship any furniture, just clothes, books, some household items, etc.

Many thanks.

There's a Wiki entry on shipping to/from Canada. It doesn't recommend specific companies but might have some helpful information.

Thanks for the link dunroving. I've found a few companies online and will contact them once I'm certain about the date.
Still if anyone knows a good company please let me know.

Try Upakweship. They do a 'ucube' and a 'ucrate' for people sending less than a full container.
