	   |  Postal office/USA  
 
			
			Anyone know of Postal office's located near the border/Blaine that works like "The letter Courier" Point Roberts. 
 Reason I'm asking is, I would like to order a product from the states. It is fairly large and comes in a pallet.
 
 I usually get items shipped over to Point Roberts but, they don't accept any palletized  items.
 
 
 Thanks

			Thanks
 Hagen of Blaine does not receive palletized items anymore.
 Think I will try Package Express. They don't seem to have registration fee too, which is good.
 
 Have you tried them before? PE?

			I go to Package Express all the time. I was there yesterday too. Fast friendly service and they always check for ID. I registered online and they send me emails right away as soon as a package arrives. 
 Never received a palletized item though so I'm not sure if they have a forklift or something. But there is tons of parking and you can back up to the big garage door to load up heavy stuff.

			I recently got 2 palette shipments through TSB shipping at point roberts.  I think there was like a $30 handling charge?Posted via RS Mobile |   |   |   |      |  07-20-2011, 03:23 AM | #7 |   | I only answer to my username, my real name is Irrelevant!

			yeah i use PE all the time too 
 the owner lives in Abby right by the border so if you can't or don't want to bring your items across you can pay them to do it and pick it up at the owners place
 
 last i heard he was getting an office on this side of the border to pick things up instead of going to his home but you get the idea
